Notes to Editors 
ATH Resources was listed on the AIM market of the London Stock Exchange in June 
2004 and operates five surface coal mines in Scotland; Skares Road, Grievehill 
and Laigh Glenmuir in East Ayrshire, Glenmuckloch in Dumfries and Galloway and 
Muir Dean in Fife. The Group is currently the third largest producer of coal in 
the UK producing approximately 2 million tonnes per annum. Coal is used to 
generate around a third of the UK's electricity and the Company now holds coal 
supply contracts with four of the UK's main electricity generating companies. 
In June 2005, having raised GBP18 million by way of an Open Offer, the Group 
acquired two new opencast sites, Grievehill and Glenmuckloch in Scotland. The 
acquisition increased the Group's reserve base by 160%. 
In May 2006, the Group acquired ATH Regeneration a successful coal recovery, 
land remediation and regeneration business with a particular focus on colliery 
spoil heap reclamation projects. The acquisition, which was earnings enhancing, 
allowed ATH Resources to build on its skills as a regenerator of land, whilst 
developing strong relationships with key English planning authorities. The 
company has been successfully integrated into the Group. The operational 
diversification that the acquisition brings to the Group will be a significant 
driver of ATH's organic growth going forward both in the UK and overseas and the 
business is actively pursuing a number of projects in Australia. 
For the year ending 28 September 2008, the Group achieved turnover of GBP76.9 
million, an increase of 9% on its 2007 year end, whilst operating profit 
increased by 8% to GBP11.9m for the same period.
