Business and Organization	'
	Business and Organization
	Hi-Crush Partners LP (together with its subsidiaries, the “Partnership”) is a Delaware limited partnership formed on May 8, 2012 to acquire selected sand reserves and related processing and transportation facilities of Hi-Crush Proppants LLC. The Partnership is engaged in the excavation and processing of raw frac sand for use in hydraulic fracturing operations for oil and natural gas wells. In connection with its formation, the Partnership issued (a) a non-economic general partner interest to Hi-Crush GP LLC (the “General Partner”), and (b) a 100.0% limited partner interest to Hi-Crush Proppants LLC (the “sponsor”), its organizational limited partner.
	Through August 15, 2012, Hi-Crush Proppants LLC owned 100% of the sand reserves and related excavation and processing facilities located in Wyeville, Wisconsin (“Wyeville Plant”). On August 16, 2012, the sponsor contributed its ownership of Hi-Crush Chambers LLC, Hi-Crush Railroad LLC, Hi-Crush Wyeville LLC, Hi-Crush Operating LLC and $4,606 of cash to the Partnership (the “Contribution”). In addition, the sponsor agreed to (1) convert all $23,916 of consolidated net intercompany receivables due from the Partnership into capital and (2) assume via capital contribution $10,028 of outstanding accounts payable maintained by Hi-Crush Operating LLC as of the transaction date. In return, the Partnership issued 13,640,351 common units and 13,640,351 subordinated units to the sponsor. In connection with this transaction, the Partnership also completed an initial public offering through the sale of 12,937,500 of the common units by the sponsor.
	The Partnership considers all contributed assets to be under common control with Hi-Crush Proppants LLC. As such, we are presenting the consolidated historical financial statements of Hi-Crush Proppants LLC as our historical financial statements as we believe they provide a representation of our management’s ability to execute and manage our business plan. The financial statement data and operations of Hi-Crush Proppants LLC are referred to herein as “Predecessor,” whereas operations following the IPO transaction on August 16, 2012 are referred to herein as “Successor”.
	On January 31, 2013, the Partnership entered into an agreement with the sponsor to acquire an interest in Hi-Crush Augusta LLC, the entity that owns the sponsor’s Augusta raw frac sand processing facility, for $37,500 in cash and 3.75 million of newly issued convertible Class B units in the Partnership. The sponsor will not receive distributions on the Class B units unless certain thresholds are met and until they convert into common units. The preferred interest in Augusta entitles the Partnership to a preferred distribution of $3,750 per quarter, or $15,000 annually.
	On June 10, 2013, the Partnership acquired an independent frac sand supplier, D & I Silica, LLC (“D&I”), transforming the Partnership into an integrated Northern White frac sand producer, transporter, marketer and distributor. The Partnership acquired D&I for $95,159 in cash and 1,578,947 common units (See Note 5 – Business Combination – Acquisition Accounting). Founded in 2006, D&I is the largest independent frac sand supplier to the oil and gas industry drilling in the Marcellus and Utica shales. D&I operates through an extensive logistics network of rail-served origin and destination terminals located in the Midwest near supply sources and strategically throughout Pennsylvania, Ohio and New York.

Basis of Presentation	'
	Basis of Presentation
	The consolidated financial statements through August 15, 2012 include the consolidated results of operations and cash flows, as well as the financial position of the sponsor (the "Predecessor"). In early 2011, the sponsor acquired land in Monroe County, Wisconsin for the purpose of excavating sand for sale into the oil and natural gas markets. In June 2011, the sponsor completed its construction of the Wyeville Plant in order to process sand excavated from the Monroe County, Wisconsin site, with its first shipments occurring on July 21, 2011.
	The consolidated financial statements from August 16, 2012 through December 31, 2013 include the consolidated results of operations and cash flows of the Partnership (the "Successor"). The consolidated financial statements include results of operations and cash flows for D&I prospectively from June 11, 2013. The balance sheet as of December 31, 2013 includes only the financial position of the Partnership, including the retained earnings of the Partnership’s operations from August 16, 2012 through December 31, 2013.

Significant Accounting Policies	12 Months Ended
	Dec. 31, 2013
Accounting Policies [Abstract]	'
Significant Accounting Policies	'
	Significant Accounting Policies
	Use of Estimates
	The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amount of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. The more significant estimates relate to our estimates and assumptions for our mineral reserves and its impact on calculating our depreciation and depletion expense under the units-of-production depreciation method, assessing potential impairment of long-lived assets, estimating potential loss contingencies and estimated cost of future asset retirement obligations. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
	Cash and Cash Equivalents
	Cash and cash equivalents consist of all cash balances and highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less.
	Restricted Cash
	The Partnership must pledge cash escrow accounts for the benefit of the Pennsylvania Department of Transportation, Bureau of Rail Freight, Ports and Waterways (“Bureau”) to guarantee performance on rail improvement projects partially funded by the Bureau. The funds are released when the project is completed.
	Accounts Receivable
	Trade receivables relate to sales of raw frac sand and related services for which credit is extended based on the customer’s credit history and are recorded at the invoiced amount and do not bear interest. The Partnership regularly reviews the collectability of accounts receivable. When it is probable that all or part of an outstanding balance will not be collected, the Partnership establishes or adjusts an allowance as necessary using the specific identification method. Account balances are charged against the allowance after all means of collection have been exhausted and potential recovery is considered remote.
	Deferred Charges
	Certain direct costs incurred in connection with debt financing have been capitalized and are being amortized using the straight-line method, which approximates the effective interest method, over the life of the debt. Amortization expense is included in interest expense and was $463 for the year ended December 31, 2013, $105 for the period from August 16, 2012 to December 31, 2013, $364 for the period from January 1, 2012 to August 15, 2012 and $154 for the year ended December 31, 2011.
	The following is a summary of future amortization expense associated with deferred charges:
	For the years ending December 31,
	2014	$	533
	2015	533
	2016	401
	Total	$	1,467
	Inventories
	Sand inventory is stated at the lower of cost or market using the average cost method.
	Inventory manufactured at our plant facilities includes direct excavation costs, processing costs, overhead allocation, depreciation and depletion. Stockpile tonnages are calculated by measuring the number of tons added and removed from the stockpile. Tonnages are verified periodically by an independent surveyor. Costs are calculated on a per ton basis and are applied to the stockpile based on the number of tons in the stockpile.
	Inventory transported for sale at our terminal facility includes the cost of purchased or manufactured sand, plus transportation related charges.
	Spare parts inventory includes critical spares, materials and supplies. We account for spare parts on a first-in, first-out basis, and value the inventory at the lower of cost or market. Detail reviews are performed related to the net realizable value of the spare parts inventory, giving consideration to quality, excessive levels, obsolescence and other factors.
	Property, Plant and Equipment
	Additions and improvements occurring through the normal course of business are capitalized at cost. When assets are retired or disposed of, the cost and the accumulated depreciation and depletion are eliminated from the accounts and any gain or loss is reflected in the income statement. Expenditures for normal repairs and maintenance are expensed as incurred. Construction-in-progress is primarily comprised of machinery and equipment which has not been placed in service.
	Mine development costs include engineering, mineralogical studies, drilling and other related costs to develop the mine, the removal of overburden to initially expose the mineral and building access ways. Exploration costs are expensed as incurred and classified as exploration expense. Capitalization of mine development project costs begins once the deposit is classified as proven and probable reserves.
	Drilling and related costs are capitalized for deposits where proven and probable reserves exist and the activities are directed at obtaining additional information on the deposit or converting non-reserve minerals to proven and probable reserves and the benefit is to be realized over a period greater than one year.
	Mine development costs are amortized using the units-of-production (“UOP”) method on estimated measured tons in in-place reserves. The impact of revisions to reserve estimates is recognized on a prospective basis.
	Capitalized costs incurred during the year for major improvement and capital projects that are not placed in service are recorded as construction-in-progress. Construction-in-progress is not depreciated until the related assets or improvements are ready to be placed in service. We capitalize interest cost as part of the historical cost of constructing an asset and preparing it for its intended use. These interest costs are included in the property, plant and equipment line in the balance sheet. The Partnership did not capitalize any interest for the period from August 16, 2012 to December 31, 2013. Capitalized interest was $1,739 for the period from January 1, 2012 to August 15, 2012 and $756 for the year ended December 31, 2011.
	Fixed assets other than plant facilities and buildings associated with productive, depletable properties are carried at historical cost and are depreciated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, as follows:
	Computer equipment	3 years
	Furniture and fixtures	7 years
	Vehicles	5 years
	Equipment	5-15 years
	Rail spur and asset retirement obligation	33 years
	Rail and rail equipment	15-20 years
	Transload facilities and equipment	15-20 years
	Plant facilities and buildings associated with productive, depletable properties that contain frac sand reserves are carried at historical cost and are depreciated using the units-of-production method. Units-of-production rates are based on the amount of proved developed frac sand reserves that are estimated to be recoverable from existing facilities using current operating methods.
	The sponsor was in a developmental stage from the date of formation until the Wyeville Plant was deemed to be operational on July 21, 2011.
	Preferred Interest in Hi-Crush Augusta
	The Partnership accounts for the preferred interest in Augusta acquired on January 31, 2013 as a cost method investment. The preferred interest is not allocated any of the periodic earnings or losses of Augusta, but may in the future convert to a 20% equity interest in that entity. In accordance with the cost method, distributions earned under the preferred interest are recognized as income on the date the cash is received by the Partnership. The preferred interest is reviewed for impairment if an event or change in circumstances occurs which may have a significant adverse effect on the fair value of the investment. No such events or changes in circumstances arose during the year ended December 31, 2013.
	Impairment of Long-lived Assets
	Recoverability of investments in property, plant and equipment, and mineral rights is evaluated annually. Estimated future undiscounted net cash flows are calculated using estimates of proven and probable sand reserves, estimated future sales prices (considering historical and current prices, price trends and related factors) and operating costs and anticipated capital expenditures. Reductions in the carrying value of our investment are only recorded if the undiscounted cash flows are less than our book basis in the applicable assets.
	Impairment losses are recognized based on the extent that the remaining investment exceeds the fair value, which is determined based upon the estimated future discounted net cash flows to be generated by the property, plant and equipment and mineral rights.
	Management’s estimates of prices, recoverable proven and probable reserves and operating and capital costs are subject to certain risks and uncertainties which may affect the recoverability of our investments in property, plant and equipment. Although management has made its best estimate of these factors based on current conditions, it is reasonably possible that changes could occur in the near term, which could adversely affect management’s estimate of the net cash flows expected to be generated from its operating property. No impairment charges were recorded during 2013, 2012 or 2011.
	Goodwill and Intangible Assets
	Goodwill represents the excess of purchase price over the fair value of net assets acquired. The Partnership performs an assessment of the recoverability of goodwill during the third quarter of each fiscal year, or more often if events or circumstances indicate the impairment of an asset may exist. Our assessment of goodwill is based on qualitative factors to determine whether the fair value of the reporting unit is more likely than not less than the carrying value. An additional quantitative impairment analysis is completed if the qualitative analysis indicates that the fair value is not substantially in excess of the carrying value. The quantitative analysis determines the fair value of the reporting unit based on the discounted cash flow method and relative market-based approaches. There was no impairment charge related to goodwill during the year ended December 31, 2013.
	The Partnership amortizes the cost of other intangible assets on a straight line basis over their estimated useful lives, ranging from 1 to 18 years. An impairment assessment is performed if events or circumstances occur and may result in the change of the useful lives of the intangible assets. During the year ended December 31, 2013, the Partnership did not record any impairment charges or changes in the useful life of its intangible assets.
	Revenue Recognition
	Frac sand sales revenues are recognized when legal title passes to the customer, which may occur at the production facility, rail origin or at the destination terminal. At that point, delivery has occurred, evidence of a contractual arrangement exists and collectability is reasonably assured. Amounts received from customers in advance of sand deliveries are recorded as deferred revenue. Revenue from make-whole provisions in our customer contracts is recognized at the end of the defined cure period.
	The majority of our frac sand is sold under long-term supply agreements, the current terms of which expire between 2014 and 2019. The agreements define, among other commitments, the volume of product that the Partnership must provide, the price that will be charged to the customer, and the volume that the customer must purchase at the end of the defined cure period, which can range from three months to the end of a contract year.
	Transportation services revenues are recognized as the services have been completed, meaning the related services have been rendered. At that point, delivery of service has occurred, evidence of a contractual arrangement exists and collectability is reasonably assured. Amounts received from customers in advance of transportation services being rendered are recorded as deferred revenue.
	Revenue attributable to silo storage leases is recorded on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease.
	Deferred Revenue
	In January 2011, the sponsor received $16,500 in an advance payment from a customer for a certain volume of product to be delivered over a one-year period starting in July 2011. Revenue was recognized as product was delivered and the deferred revenue obligation was recognized over the one-year period ended June 30, 2012. In July 2012, the sponsor received an $8,250 advance payment from a customer for a certain volume of frac sand to be delivered over the six-month period beginning in July 2012. As of August 15, 2012, the outstanding balance under this obligation was $6,590 while the cash held by the Partnership was $1,984. As a result, the sponsor made a cash contribution of $4,606 to align the cash balance with the outstanding balance under this advance. As of December 31, 2012, the balance was $1,715, and as of December 31, 2013, no deferred revenue balance was outstanding under this advance payment.
	Asset Retirement Obligation
	In accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 410-20, Asset Retirement Obligations, we recognize reclamation obligations when incurred and record them as liabilities at fair value. In addition, a corresponding increase in the carrying amount of the related asset is recorded and depreciated over such asset’s useful life. The reclamation liability is accreted to expense over the estimated productive life of the related asset and is subject to adjustments to reflect changes in value resulting from the passage of time and revisions to the estimates of either the timing or amount of the reclamation costs.
	Fair Value of Financial Instruments
	The amounts reported in the balance sheet as current assets or liabilities, including cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable, accrued liabilities and deferred revenue approximate fair value due to the short-term maturities of these instruments.
	The amount recorded on the balance sheet pertaining to the Partnership’s long-term debt outstanding at December 31, 2013 is considered a Level 2 financial instrument, as although there is no observable quoted price, the underlying floating rate of interest is based on a published benchmark interest rate that is observable at commonly quoted intervals. As of December 31, 2013, the carrying value of the debt approximated its fair value as it is subject to floating rate interest and there have not been any significant changes to the Partnership’s credit profile since the debt was issued in January 2013.
	Net Income per Limited Partner Unit
	We have identified the General Partner’s incentive distribution rights as participating securities and compute income per unit using the two-class method under which any excess of distributions declared over net income shall be allocated to the partners based on their respective sharing of income specified in the partnership agreement. Net income per unit applicable to limited partners (including subordinated unitholders) is computed by dividing limited partners’ interest in net income, after deducting any General Partner incentive distributions, by the weighted-average number of outstanding common and subordinated units. Diluted net income per unit includes the effects of potentially dilutive units on our subordinated and common units. Basic and diluted net income per common and subordinated unit are the same as there are no potentially dilutive subordinated units outstanding.
	As the 3,750,000 Class B units do not have voting rights or rights to share in the Partnership’s periodic earnings, either through participation in its distributions or through an allocation of its undistributed earnings or losses, they are not deemed to be participating securities in their current form. In addition, the conversion of the Class B units into common units is fully contingent upon the satisfaction of defined criteria pertaining to the cumulative payment of distributions and earnings per unit of the Partnership as described in Note 11. Therefore, it is possible that the Class B units may never be converted into common units. As such, until all of the defined payment and earnings criteria are satisfied, the Class B units will not be included in our calculation of either basic or diluted earnings per unit.
	Income Taxes
The Partnership and sponsor are pass-through entities and are not considered taxable entities for federal tax purposes. Therefore, there is not a provision for income taxes in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements. The Partnership’s net income or loss is allocated to its partners in accordance with the partnership agreement. The partners are taxed individually on their share of the Partnership’s earnings. At December 31, 2013 and 2012, the Partnership did not have any liabilities for uncertain tax positions or gross unrecognized tax benefit.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In February 2013, the Financing Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued amended guidance on the recognition, measurement, and disclosure of certain obligations resulting from joint and several liability arrangements for which the total amount of the obligation is fixed at the reporting date. Such arrangements may include debt, other contractual obligations, and settled litigation and judicial rulings. The amended guidance is to be applied retrospectively to all prior periods presented. This guidance will be effective for the Partnership beginning January 1, 2014. The Partnership anticipates that the adoption of this amended guidance will not materially affect its financial position, result of operations or cash flows.
In December 2011 and January 2013, the FASB issued amended guidance on disclosures pertaining to certain assets and liabilities that are either offset in an entity’s financial statements or those that are subject to a master netting agreement or similar arrangement. The scope of these disclosures is limited to derivatives, repurchase agreements and securities lending transactions. The Partnership adopted this guidance effective January 1, 2013, and, as it only impacts disclosures, it did not affect the Partnership’s financial position, result of operations or cash flows.

	On August 16, 2012, we completed our initial public offering (“IPO”) of 11,250,000 common units representing limited partner interests in the Partnership at a price to the public of $17.00 per common unit. Total net proceeds paid to our sponsor from the sale of common units in our IPO were $179,536 after taking into account our underwriting discount of $11,714.

	Amended and Restated Agreement of Limited Partnership of Hi-Crush Partners LP
	On August 20, 2012, the Partnership amended and restated its Limited Partnership Agreement to establish the organizational framework for a public master limited partnership. On January 31, 2013, the Partnership amended and restated its amended and restated Limited Partnership Agreement to, among other things, provide for the creation of the Class B units. See Note 11 – Equity.
	Omnibus Agreement
	On August 20, 2012, we entered into an omnibus agreement with both our General Partner and our sponsor. Pursuant to the terms of this agreement, our sponsor will indemnify us and our subsidiaries for certain liabilities over specified periods of time, including but not limited to certain liabilities relating to (a) environmental matters pertaining to the period prior to our IPO and the contribution of the Wyeville assets from our sponsor, provided that such indemnity is capped at $7,500 in aggregate, (b) federal, state and local tax liabilities pertaining to the period prior to our IPO and the contribution of the Wyeville assets from our sponsor, (c) inadequate permits or licenses related to the contributed assets, and (d) any losses, costs or damages incurred by us that are attributable to our sponsor’s ownership and operation of the Wyeville assets prior to our IPO and our sponsor’s contribution of such assets. In addition, we have agreed to indemnify our sponsor from any losses, costs or damages it incurs that are attributable to our ownership and operation of the contributed assets following the closing of the IPO, subject to similar limitations as on our sponsor’s indemnity obligations to us.
	The omnibus agreement had provided that we would assign to our sponsor all of our rights and obligations under our long-term contract with one customer as of May 1, 2013, and our sponsor would have been obligated to accept such assignment and assume our obligations under such contract. In connection with our acquisition of a preferred interest in Augusta on January 31, 2013, our sponsor waived its right to require that we assign to our sponsor such contract. As such, the contract remains with the Partnership and will continue to be fulfilled by the Wyeville Plant for the remainder of its term. In addition, the omnibus agreement also grants us, for a period of three years from the effective date of the agreement, a right of first offer on our sponsor’s sand reserves and any related assets that have been or will be constructed on its current acreage in Augusta, Wisconsin in the event our sponsor proposes to transfer such reserves and assets to a third party other than in connection with a sale of all or substantially all of its assets.
	Services Agreements
	Effective August 16, 2012, we entered into a services agreement (the “Services Agreement”) by and among our General Partner, Hi-Crush Services LLC (“Hi-Crush Services”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of the sponsor, and the Partnership, pursuant to which Hi-Crush Services provides certain management and administrative services to our General Partner to assist in operating our business. Under the Services Agreement, the Partnership reimburses Hi-Crush Services and its affiliates, on a monthly basis, for the allocable expenses it incurs in its performance under the Services Agreement. These expenses include, among other things, salary, bonus, incentive compensation, rent and other administrative expense for individuals and entities that perform services for us or on our behalf. Hi-Crush Services and its affiliates are not liable to us for its performance of services under the Services Agreement except a liability resulting from gross negligence.
	In addition, effective August 16, 2012, we entered into an agreement with our sponsor, pursuant to which the sponsor provides maintenance and capital spares to us in connection with the ongoing maintenance of our Wyeville facility. Our sponsor bills us for the approximate cost of such items.
	Long-Term Incentive Plan
	On August 21, 2012, the General Partner adopted the Hi-Crush Partners LP Long Term Incentive Plan (the “Plan”) for employees, consultants and directors of the General Partner and those of its affiliates, including the sponsor, who perform services for the Partnership. The Plan consists of restricted units, unit options, phantom units, unit payments, unit appreciation rights, other equity-based awards, distribution equivalent rights, and performance awards. The Plan limits the number of common units that may be delivered pursuant to awards under the plan to 1,364,035 units. Common units withheld to satisfy exercise prices or tax withholding obligations are available for delivery pursuant to other awards. The Plan is administered by the General Partner’s Board of Directors or a committee thereof.

	Preferred Interest in Hi-Crush Augusta LLC
	On January 31, 2013, the Partnership entered into an agreement with our sponsor to acquire 100,000 preferred units in Augusta, the entity that owns our sponsor’s Augusta Plant, for $37,500 in cash and 3,750,000 newly issued convertible Class B units in the Partnership.
	The transaction represented an exchange of ownership interests between entities under common control. As a result, the Partnership recorded an investment in the preferred interest equal to the total amount of the cash paid and our sponsor’s cost basis in the preferred units. Excess consideration exchanged over the cost basis was recorded as a deemed distribution to our sponsor, determined as follows:
	Total consideration paid	$	95,400
	Less: Cash paid	(37,500		)
	Less: Sponsor’s cost basis in the investment	(9,543		)
	Deemed distribution	$	48,357
	In connection with this acquisition, the Partnership incurred $451 of acquisition related costs during the year ended December 31, 2013, as included in general and administrative expenses.
	As a preferred unit holder in Augusta, the Partnership votes as a separate class from the common unitholders of Augusta and ranks senior to all other equity classes of Augusta. The preferred units entitle the Partnership to receive a distribution equal to $3,750 per quarter, beginning January 1, 2013, plus any unpaid arrearages from prior quarters. During 2013, Augusta declared and paid three quarterly distributions of $3,750. Income pertaining to the distributions is recognized during the period the distribution is received. On January 2014, Augusta declared its fourth quarterly distribution of $3,750, to be paid on February 11, 2014.
	The preferred units in Augusta will automatically convert to common units in Augusta on March 31, 2018 unless (i) there are any arrearages in preferred unit distributions, (ii) the preferred units would not have received, on an as-converted basis, an annualized distribution of at least $10,000 over the preceding four quarters or (iii) the Partnership, with concurrence of the conflicts committee of the board of directors of our General Partner, elects to convert at an earlier time. The number of common units issued upon conversion will be equal to 25% of the then outstanding common units, such that, following the conversion, the Partnership would own 20% of the common units in Augusta.

	Subordinated Promissory Notes
	Between May 25, 2011 and July 20, 2012, the sponsor entered into various subordinated promissory notes with certain of its equity investors and their affiliates in an aggregate initial principal amount of $52,167. Borrowings under the subordinated promissory notes bore interest, at the sponsor’s option, at a rate of 10% for cash interest and 12% for paid-in-kind interest (“PIK interest”). Accruals for PIK interest increased the outstanding principal balance of these promissory notes. The balances of the PIK interest and subordinated promissory notes were paid in full on August 21, 2012 with the proceeds of the sale of the common units by the sponsor.
	New Subordinated Promissory Notes
	In order to fund a royalty termination payment (See Note 14—Commitments and Contingencies), the sponsor entered into new subordinated promissory notes in July 2012 with certain of its equity investors and their affiliates in an aggregate initial principal amount of $14,981. The balances of the PIK interest and subordinated promissory note, as retained by the sponsor, were paid in full by the sponsor on August 21, 2012 with the proceeds of the sale of the common units by the sponsor.
	Sponsor Credit Facility
	On April 6, 2012, the sponsor entered into a four-year $62,500 secured credit facility (the “Sponsor Credit Facility”) with Amegy Bank, N.A. and a syndicate of other financial institutions (collectively, the “Lending Banks”). The Sponsor Credit Facility consists of the following commitments on the part of the Lending Banks: (1) a $25,000 term loan, (2) a $30,000 advancing term loan commitment (“Tranche B”) and (3) a $7,500 revolving loan commitment (the “Revolving Commitment”). In addition, the Sponsor Credit Facility includes sub-limits for letters of credit and swing line borrowings of up to $5,000 and $2,500, respectively.
	Borrowings under the Sponsor Credit Facility bear interest at a floating rate equal to, at the sponsor’s option, either (a) a base rate plus a range of 225 basis points to 325 basis points per annum or (b) a Eurodollar rate, which is based on one-month LIBOR, plus a range of 325 basis points to 425 basis points per annum. The base rate is established as the highest of (i) the U.S. prime rate last quoted by The Wall Street Journal, (ii) the federal funds rate plus 50 basis points or (iii) daily one-month LIBOR plus 100 basis points. The Revolving Commitment and the Tranche B term loan provides for a commitment fee of 0.5% on the unused portion.
	After consummation of the IPO on August 16, 2012, our sponsor retained the Sponsor Credit Facility and related borrowings. In addition, as of August 16, 2012, the Sponsor Credit Facility was no longer guaranteed by the subsidiaries contributed to the Partnership. As such, the sponsor’s long-term debt is not reflected on the Partnership’s successor balance sheets.
	On August 21, 2012, the sponsor entered into that certain consent and third amendment to the Sponsor Credit Facility, whereby the lending banks, among other things, (i) consented to the consummation of the initial public offering of the Partnership, (ii) released and discharged certain credit parties in connection with the initial public offering.
	Partnership Credit Facility
	On August 21, 2012, the Partnership entered into a credit agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) providing for a new $100,000 senior secured revolving credit facility (the “Credit Facility”) with a term of four years. In connection with our acquisition of a preferred interest in Augusta, on January 31, 2013, the Partnership entered into a consent and first amendment to the Credit Agreement whereby the Lending Banks, among other things, (i) consented to the amendment and restatement of the partnership agreement of the Partnership and (ii) agreed to amend the Credit Agreement to permit the acquisition by the Partnership of a preferred equity interest in Hi-Crush Augusta LLC. On May 9, 2013, the Partnership entered into a commitment increase agreement and second amendment to the Credit Agreement whereby the Lending Banks, among other things, consented to the increase of the aggregate commitments by $100,000 to a total of $200,000 and addition of lenders to the lending bank group. The Credit Facility is available to fund working capital and general corporate purposes, including the making of certain restricted payments permitted therein. Borrowings under the Credit Facility are secured by substantially all of the Partnership’s assets, including its preferred equity interest in Augusta.
	Loans under the Credit Facility bear interest at a floating rate based upon the Partnership’s leverage ratio, equal to, at the Partnership’s option, either (a) a base rate plus a range from 150 to 250 basis points per annum or (b) a LIBOR rate, plus a range of 250 to 350 basis points. The base rate is established as the highest of (i) the U.S. prime rate, (ii) daily one-month LIBOR plus 100 basis points and (iii) the federal funds rate plus 0.50%. The unused portion of the Credit Facility is subject to a commitment fee calculated based upon the Partnership’s leverage ratio ranging from 0.375% to 0.50% per annum. Upon any event of default, the interest rate shall, upon the request of the lenders holding a majority of the commitments, be increased by 2.0% per annum for the period during which the event of default exists.
	The Credit Agreement contains customary representations and warranties, affirmative covenants, negative covenants and events of default. The negative covenants include restrictions on the Partnership’s ability to incur additional indebtedness, acquire and sell assets, create liens, make investments and make distributions.
	The Credit Agreement requires the Partnership to maintain a leverage ratio (as such term is defined in the Credit Agreement) of not more than 3.00 to 1.00, which may increase to up to 3.50 to 1.00 during specified periods following a permitted acquisition, and a minimum interest coverage ratio (as such term is defined in the Credit Agreement) of not less than 2.50 to 1.00. Under the second amendment, the Partnership agreed to a term out feature under which $50,000 of borrowings would convert to a term loan due August 21, 2016 if the outstanding borrowings under the revolver exceeded $125,000 for four consecutive quarters. If balances are outstanding on a term loan, the Partnership would be required to maintain a debt service coverage ratio (as such term is defined in the Credit Agreement) of not less than 1.50 to 1.00.
	If an event of default (as defined the Credit Agreement) occurs, the agent would be entitled to take various actions, including the acceleration of amounts due under the Credit Facility, termination of the commitments under the Credit Facility and all remedial actions available to a secured creditor. As of December 31, 2013, we were in compliance with the covenants contained in the Partnership Credit Facility.
	As of December 31, 2013, we had $138,250 indebtedness and $60,250 of undrawn borrowing capacity ($200,000, net of $138,250 indebtedness and $1,500 letter of credit commitments) under our Credit Facility. The outstanding balance is due on December 31, 2016 and carries an interest rate of 3.17% as of December 31, 2013.
	Subsidiary Guarantors
	The Partnership has filed a registration statement on Form S-3 to register, among other securities, debt securities. Each of the current subsidiaries of Hi-Crush Partners LP (other than Hi-Crush Finance Corp., whose sole purpose is to act as a co-issuer of any debt securities), each a 100 percent directly or indirectly owned subsidiary of the Partnership (the “guarantors”), will issue guarantees of the debt securities, if any of them issue guarantees, and such guarantees will be full and unconditional and will constitute the joint and several obligations of such guarantors. The guarantors are our sole subsidiaries, other than Hi-Crush Finance Corp., which is our 100 percent owned subsidiary. The Partnership has no assets or operations independent of its subsidiaries, and there are no significant restrictions upon the ability of the Partnership or any of its subsidiaries to obtain funds from its respective subsidiaries by dividend or loan. None of the assets of our subsidiaries represent restricted net assets pursuant to Rule 4-08(e)(3) of Regulation S-X under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”).

Equity	'
	Equity
	On January 30, 2013, the Partnership issued 2,761 common units to each of its independent directors, valued in the aggregate at $100 and reflected as general and administrative expense in the accompanying financial statements. In January 2014, the Partnership issued 4,149 common units to the independent directors of the General Partner and 4,366 common units to certain employees.
	On June 10, 2013, the Partnership issued 1,578,947 common units to certain former members of D&I, representing the non-cash portion of the purchase price for the acquisition (See Note 5 – Business Combination – Acquisition Accounting).
	As of December 31, 2013, our sponsor owned all 13,640,351 subordinated units and 3,750,000 Class B units, representing a 47.3% ownership interest in the limited partner units and 100% ownership of the Class B units of the Partnership. In addition, the sponsor is the owner of our General Partner.
	Subordinated Class B Units
	On January 31, 2013, the Partnership issued 3,750,000 subordinated Class B units and paid $37,500 in cash to the sponsor in return for 100,000 preferred equity units in the sponsor’s Augusta facility. Our sponsor will not receive distributions on the Class B units until converted into common units of the Partnership. The Class B units are eligible for conversion into common units once we have, for two consecutive quarters, (i) earned $2.31 per common unit, subordinated unit and Class B unit on an annualized basis and (ii) paid $2.10 per unit in annualized distributions on each common and subordinated unit, or 110% of the current minimum quarterly distribution for a period of two consecutive quarters, and our General Partner has determined, with the concurrence of the conflicts committee of the board of directors of our General Partner, that we are expected to maintain such performance for at least two succeeding quarters.
	Allocations of Net Income
	Our partnership agreement contains provisions for the allocation of net income and loss to the unitholders and the General Partner. For purposes of maintaining partner capital accounts, the partnership agreement specifies that items of income and loss shall be allocated among the partners in accordance with their respective percentage ownership interest. Normal allocations according to percentage interests are made after giving effect, if any, to priority income allocations in an amount equal to incentive cash distributions allocated 100% to the General Partner.
	Incentive Distribution Rights
	Incentive distribution rights represent the right to receive increasing percentages (ranging from 15.0% to 50.0%) of quarterly distributions from operating surplus after minimum quarterly distribution and target distribution levels exceed $0.54625 per unit, per quarter. Our sponsor currently holds the incentive distribution rights, but may transfer these rights at any time.
	Distributions
	Our partnership agreement sets forth the calculation to be used to determine the amount of cash distributions that our common and subordinated unitholders and sponsor will receive.
	Our distributions have been as follows:
	Declaration Date		Amount Declared Per Unit (a)			Record Date	Date Paid	Amount Paid
	October 19, 2012		$	0.2375	(b)	November 1, 2012	November 15, 2012	$	6,480
	January 17, 2013		$	0.475		February 1, 2013	February 15, 2013	$	12,961
	April 16, 2013		$	0.475		May 1, 2013	May 15, 2013	$	12,961
	July 17, 2013		$	0.475		August 1, 2013	August 15, 2013	$	13,711
	October 17, 2013		$	0.49		November 1, 2013	November 15, 2013	$	14,144
	January 15, 2014		$	0.51		January 31, 2014	February 14, 2014	$	14,726
	(a) For all common and subordinated units. No distributions were declared for our holders of incentive distribution rights or the holders of our Class B units.
	(b) Represents a pro rata distribution of our minimum quarterly distribution for the period from August 16, 2012 through September 30, 2012.
	For purposes of calculating the Partnership’s earnings per unit under the two-class method, common units are treated as participating preferred units, and the subordinated units are treated as the residual equity interest, or common equity. Incentive distribution rights are treated as participating securities.
	Distributions made in future periods based on the current period calculation of cash available for distribution is allocated to each class of equity that will receive the distribution. Any unpaid cumulative distributions are allocated to the appropriate class of equity.
	Each period the Partnership determines the amount of cash available for distributions in accordance with the partnership agreement. The amount to be distributed to common unitholders, subordinated unitholders and incentive distribution rights holders is based on the distribution waterfall in the partnership agreement. Net earnings for the period are allocated to each class of partnership interest based on the distributions to be made. Additionally, if, during the subordination period, the Partnership does not have enough cash available to make the required minimum distribution to the common unit holders, the Partnership will allocate net earnings to the common unit holders based on the amount of distributions in arrears. When actual cash distributions are made based on distributions in arrears, those cash distributions will not be allocated to the common unit holders, as such earnings were allocated in previous periods.
	Net income attributable to our limited partner unitholders is as follows during the year ended December 31, 2013 (in thousands, except per unit amounts):
		Common Unitholders			Subordinated Unitholders
	Distributions during the period	$	21,174		$	19,642
	Subsequent distributions declared (See Note 18)	7,769			6,957
	Undistributed earnings	1,385			1,635
	Limited partners’ interest in net income	30,328			28,234
	Subsequent distributions declared (per unit)	$	0.51		$	0.51
	During the year ended December 31, 2013 and the period from August 16 through December 31, 2012, no net income was attributable to our incentive distribution rights holders.

	On May 25, 2011, the sponsor entered into a management services agreement with Red Oak Capital Management LLC (the “Service Provider”) which is owned by two members who are also equity members in the sponsor. The agreement provides for certain management and administrative support services to be provided to the sponsor for a term of one year and that thereafter remains in place upon the same terms and conditions. Either party may terminate the agreement by delivering written notice within 90 days prior to the date of expiration of the initial term or any time after the expiration of the initial term, by delivering written notice 90 days prior to the desired date of termination. The sponsor reimburses the Service Provider 95% of the Service Provider’s actual costs limited to $850 per year. These fees are included in general and administrative expenses. Management fees incurred during the year ended December 31, 2013 are included as a portion of the management services expense from Hi-Crush Services, as discussed below.
	The sponsor paid quarterly director fees to non-management directors that may be members and/or holders of the sponsor’s debt through the date of the IPO.
	The total management and director fees incurred were as follows:
		Management Fee		Director Fees

	In the normal course of business, our sponsor and its affiliates, including Hi-Crush Services, and the Partnership may from time to time make payments on behalf of each other. During the period from August 16 through December 31, 2012, we made payments of $9,866 to various suppliers, vendors or other counterparties on behalf of our sponsor. This balance was offset by $1,028 of management fees charged by our sponsor and $3,223 of net payments made by our sponsor on behalf of us. The balance of $5,615 which was maintained as a current asset under the caption “Due from sponsor” as of December 31, 2012, was repaid by our sponsor in February 2013.
	As of December 31, 2013, an outstanding balance of $2,571 payable to our Sponsor is maintained as a current liability under the caption “Due to Sponsor.”

	Segment Reporting
	The Partnership manages, operates and owns assets utilized to supply frac sand to its customers. As a result of its June 10, 2013 acquisition of D&I, the Partnership identified its production plant and terminal facilities as separate operating segments through the third quarter of 2013. These two operating segments were aggregated into one reportable segment as they sell the same products, source product from frac sand production facilities in the Midwestern United States, have similar customers, use similar distribution systems and have similar economic characteristics and regulatory environments. Through the fourth quarter of 2013, the Partnership continued to integrate the recently acquired terminal facilities, which resulted in a change in the way the chief operating decision maker allocates capital resources and assesses performance. As a result of this integration, the two previously identified operating segments were combined into one operating segment titled "Frac Sand Sales" for reporting purposes.

	The Partnership enters into sales contracts with customers. These contracts establish minimum annual sand volumes that the Partnership is required to make available to such customers under initial terms ranging from 3 to 6 years. Through December 31, 2013, no payments for non-delivery of minimum annual sand volumes have been made by the Partnership to these customers under these contracts.
	D&I has entered into long-term supply agreements with certain of its suppliers which include requirements to purchase certain volumes and grades of sands, at specified prices. The quantities set forth in such agreements are not in excess of our current requirements.
	Hi-Crush Operating LLC, a subsidiary of the Partnership, has entered into royalty agreements under which such entity is under a commitment to pay royalties on sand sold from the Wyeville Plant for which the Partnership has received payment. Royalty expense is recorded as the sand is sold and the royalty payment is paid based on sand volumes sold and paid for by the customer. Royalty expense is included in costs of goods sold. Royalty expense was $2,045 for the Predecessor’s year ended December 31, 2011. Royalty expense was $3,795 for the Predecessor period from January 1 through August 15, 2012. Royalty expense was $3,597 and $948 for the Successor year ended December 31, 2013 and the period of August 16 to December 31, 2012, respectively.
	On July 13, 2012, the sponsor paid $14,000 in cash to terminate one of its existing royalty agreements, including $370 of outstanding obligations at the time. As a result of this payment, the Partnership is no longer required to make ongoing future royalty payments to the applicable counterparties for each ton of frac sand that is excavated, processed and sold to the Partnership’s customers. As part of this transaction, the Predecessor recorded an asset of $13,630, in property, plant and equipment.
	The Partnership has long-term operating leases for rail access, railcars and equipment at its terminal sites, which are also under long-term lease agreements with various railroads. Rail car rental expense was $2,035 for the year ended December 31, 2013. As of December 31, 2013, future minimum operating lease payments are as follows:
	Fiscal Year	Amount
	2014	$	7,009

	From time to time the Partnership may be subject to various claims and legal proceedings which arise in the normal course of business. Management is not aware of any legal matters that are likely to have a material adverse effect on the Partnership’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
	In May 2012, Hi-Crush Operating LLC, a subsidiary of the Partnership, entered into a supply agreement for frac sand with Baker Hughes Oilfield Operations, Inc. (“Baker Hughes”). On September 19, 2012, Baker Hughes provided notice that it was terminating the contract and on November 12, 2012, Hi-Crush Operating LLC formally terminated the supply agreement and filed suit in the State District Court of Harris County, Texas. On October 8, 2013, Hi-Crush Operating LLC entered into a settlement agreement with Baker Hughes pursuant to which Hi-Crush Operating LLC and Baker Hughes agreed to jointly dismiss the lawsuit between the parties and, in connection with the settlement, the parties entered into a six-year supply agreement that requires Baker Hughes to purchase minimum volumes of frac sand each month.
	Following the Partnership’s November 2012 announcement that Hi-Crush Operating LLC had formally terminated its supply agreement with Baker Hughes in response to the repudiation of the agreement by Baker Hughes, the Partnership, our general partner, certain of its officers and directors and its underwriters were named as defendants in purported securities class action lawsuits brought by the Partnership’s unitholders in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York. On February 11, 2013, the lawsuits were consolidated into one lawsuit, styled In re: Hi-Crush Partners L.P. Securities Litigation, No. 12-Civ-8557 (CM). A consolidated amended complaint was filed on February 15, 2013. That complaint asserted claims under sections 11, 12(a)(2), and 15 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Securities Act, and sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Exchange Act in connection with the Partnership’s Registration Statement and a subsequent presentation. Among other things, the consolidated amended complaint alleges that defendants failed to disclose to the market certain alleged information relating to Baker Hughes’ repudiation of the supply agreement. On March 22, 2013, the Partnership filed a motion to dismiss the complaint. On December 2, 2013, the court issued an order dismissing the claims relating to the Partnership’s Registration Statement, but did not dismiss the claims relating to alleged misrepresentations concerning the Partnership’s relationship with Baker Hughes after the Partnership’s initial public offering. The Partnership and the remaining defendants in the lawsuit have filed answers to the complaint. The Partnership believes the case is without merit and intends to vigorously defend itself. The Partnership cannot provide assurance, however, as to the outcome of this lawsuit.
	On December 20, 2013, Stephen Bushansky, a purported unitholder of the Partnership, filed a lawsuit, derivatively on behalf of the Partnership, against our general partner and certain of its officers and directors, in an action styled Bushansky v. Hi-Crush GP LLC, Cause No. 2013-76463, in the 215th Judicial District Court, Harris County, Texas. This lawsuit alleges that by failing to disclose Baker Hughes’ attempted repudiation of its supply agreement with Hi-Crush Operating LLC prior to the Partnership’s November 2012 announcement terminating the agreement, defendants failed to design and implement an effective system of internal controls to prevent the Partnership from violating federal securities laws. Plaintiff asserts a claim for breach of fiduciary duties of good faith, care, loyalty, reasonable inquiry, oversight and supervision. Plaintiff also asserts that the defendants aided and abetted in one another’s breaches of fiduciary duties and seeks relief from defendants on the theory of indemnity for all damages that occurred as a result of defendants’ alleged violations. On January 29, 2014, defendants filed a motion to dismiss, plea to the jurisdiction, or in the alternative, motion to stay based on the mandatory contractual forum selection clause in our partnership agreement. The Partnership believes the case is without merit and intends to vigorously defend itself. The Partnership cannot provide assurance, however, as to the outcome of this lawsuit.

	The Partnership is a producer of sand mainly used by the oil and natural gas industry for fracing wells. The Partnership’s business is, therefore, dependent upon economic activity within this market. For the year ended December 31, 2013, sales to three customers accounted for 76% of the Partnership’s revenue. Sales to four customers accounted for 100% of the Partnership's revenue from inception through December 31, 2012.

Use of Estimates	'
	Use of Estimates
	The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amount of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. The more significant estimates relate to our estimates and assumptions for our mineral reserves and its impact on calculating our depreciation and depletion expense under the units-of-production depreciation method, assessing potential impairment of long-lived assets, estimating potential loss contingencies and estimated cost of future asset retirement obligations. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

When it is probable that all or part of an outstanding balance will not be collected, the Partnership establishes or adjusts an allowance as necessary using the specific identification method. Account balances are charged against the allowance after all means of collection have been exhausted and potential recovery is considered remote.
Deferred Charges	'
	Deferred Charges
	Certain direct costs incurred in connection with debt financing have been capitalized and are being amortized using the straight-line method, which approximates the effective interest method, over the life of the debt. Amortization expense is included in interest expense and was $463 for the year ended December 31, 2013, $105 for the period from August 16, 2012 to December 31, 2013, $364 for the period from January 1, 2012 to August 15, 2012 and $154 for the year ended December 31, 2011.
Inventories	'
	Inventories
	Sand inventory is stated at the lower of cost or market using the average cost method.
	Inventory manufactured at our plant facilities includes direct excavation costs, processing costs, overhead allocation, depreciation and depletion. Stockpile tonnages are calculated by measuring the number of tons added and removed from the stockpile. Tonnages are verified periodically by an independent surveyor. Costs are calculated on a per ton basis and are applied to the stockpile based on the number of tons in the stockpile.
	Inventory transported for sale at our terminal facility includes the cost of purchased or manufactured sand, plus transportation related charges.
	Spare parts inventory includes critical spares, materials and supplies. We account for spare parts on a first-in, first-out basis, and value the inventory at the lower of cost or market. Detail reviews are performed related to the net realizable value of the spare parts inventory, giving consideration to quality, excessive levels, obsolescence and other factors.
Property, Plant and Equipment	'
	Property, Plant and Equipment
	Additions and improvements occurring through the normal course of business are capitalized at cost. When assets are retired or disposed of, the cost and the accumulated depreciation and depletion are eliminated from the accounts and any gain or loss is reflected in the income statement. Expenditures for normal repairs and maintenance are expensed as incurred. Construction-in-progress is primarily comprised of machinery and equipment which has not been placed in service.
	Mine development costs include engineering, mineralogical studies, drilling and other related costs to develop the mine, the removal of overburden to initially expose the mineral and building access ways. Exploration costs are expensed as incurred and classified as exploration expense. Capitalization of mine development project costs begins once the deposit is classified as proven and probable reserves.
	Drilling and related costs are capitalized for deposits where proven and probable reserves exist and the activities are directed at obtaining additional information on the deposit or converting non-reserve minerals to proven and probable reserves and the benefit is to be realized over a period greater than one year.
	Mine development costs are amortized using the units-of-production (“UOP”) method on estimated measured tons in in-place reserves. The impact of revisions to reserve estimates is recognized on a prospective basis.
	Capitalized costs incurred during the year for major improvement and capital projects that are not placed in service are recorded as construction-in-progress. Construction-in-progress is not depreciated until the related assets or improvements are ready to be placed in service. We capitalize interest cost as part of the historical cost of constructing an asset and preparing it for its intended use. These interest costs are included in the property, plant and equipment line in the balance sheet. The Partnership did not capitalize any interest for the period from August 16, 2012 to December 31, 2013. Capitalized interest was $1,739 for the period from January 1, 2012 to August 15, 2012 and $756 for the year ended December 31, 2011.
	Fixed assets other than plant facilities and buildings associated with productive, depletable properties are carried at historical cost and are depreciated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, as follows:
	Computer equipment	3 years
	Furniture and fixtures	7 years
	Vehicles	5 years
	Equipment	5-15 years
	Rail spur and asset retirement obligation	33 years
	Rail and rail equipment	15-20 years
	Transload facilities and equipment	15-20 years
	Plant facilities and buildings associated with productive, depletable properties that contain frac sand reserves are carried at historical cost and are depreciated using the units-of-production method. Units-of-production rates are based on the amount of proved developed frac sand reserves that are estimated to be recoverable from existing facilities using current operating methods.
	The sponsor was in a developmental stage from the date of formation until the Wyeville Plant was deemed to be operational on July 21, 2011.
Preferred Interest in Hi-Crush Augusta	'
	Preferred Interest in Hi-Crush Augusta
	The Partnership accounts for the preferred interest in Augusta acquired on January 31, 2013 as a cost method investment. The preferred interest is not allocated any of the periodic earnings or losses of Augusta, but may in the future convert to a 20% equity interest in that entity. In accordance with the cost method, distributions earned under the preferred interest are recognized as income on the date the cash is received by the Partnership. The preferred interest is reviewed for impairment if an event or change in circumstances occurs which may have a significant adverse effect on the fair value of the investment.
Impairment of Long-lived Assets	'
	Impairment of Long-lived Assets
	Recoverability of investments in property, plant and equipment, and mineral rights is evaluated annually. Estimated future undiscounted net cash flows are calculated using estimates of proven and probable sand reserves, estimated future sales prices (considering historical and current prices, price trends and related factors) and operating costs and anticipated capital expenditures. Reductions in the carrying value of our investment are only recorded if the undiscounted cash flows are less than our book basis in the applicable assets.
	Impairment losses are recognized based on the extent that the remaining investment exceeds the fair value, which is determined based upon the estimated future discounted net cash flows to be generated by the property, plant and equipment and mineral rights.
	Management’s estimates of prices, recoverable proven and probable reserves and operating and capital costs are subject to certain risks and uncertainties which may affect the recoverability of our investments in property, plant and equipment. Although management has made its best estimate of these factors based on current conditions, it is reasonably possible that changes could occur in the near term, which could adversely affect management’s estimate of the net cash flows expected to be generated from its operating property.
Goodwill and Intangible Assets	'
	Goodwill and Intangible Assets
	Goodwill represents the excess of purchase price over the fair value of net assets acquired. The Partnership performs an assessment of the recoverability of goodwill during the third quarter of each fiscal year, or more often if events or circumstances indicate the impairment of an asset may exist. Our assessment of goodwill is based on qualitative factors to determine whether the fair value of the reporting unit is more likely than not less than the carrying value. An additional quantitative impairment analysis is completed if the qualitative analysis indicates that the fair value is not substantially in excess of the carrying value. The quantitative analysis determines the fair value of the reporting unit based on the discounted cash flow method and relative market-based approaches. There was no impairment charge related to goodwill during the year ended December 31, 2013.
	The Partnership amortizes the cost of other intangible assets on a straight line basis over their estimated useful lives, ranging from 1 to 18 years. An impairment assessment is performed if events or circumstances occur and may result in the change of the useful lives of the intangible assets.
Revenue Recognition	'
	Revenue Recognition
	Frac sand sales revenues are recognized when legal title passes to the customer, which may occur at the production facility, rail origin or at the destination terminal. At that point, delivery has occurred, evidence of a contractual arrangement exists and collectability is reasonably assured. Amounts received from customers in advance of sand deliveries are recorded as deferred revenue. Revenue from make-whole provisions in our customer contracts is recognized at the end of the defined cure period.
	The majority of our frac sand is sold under long-term supply agreements, the current terms of which expire between 2014 and 2019. The agreements define, among other commitments, the volume of product that the Partnership must provide, the price that will be charged to the customer, and the volume that the customer must purchase at the end of the defined cure period, which can range from three months to the end of a contract year.
	Transportation services revenues are recognized as the services have been completed, meaning the related services have been rendered. At that point, delivery of service has occurred, evidence of a contractual arrangement exists and collectability is reasonably assured. Amounts received from customers in advance of transportation services being rendered are recorded as deferred revenue.
	Revenue attributable to silo storage leases is recorded on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease.
Deferred Revenue	'
	Deferred Revenue
	In January 2011, the sponsor received $16,500 in an advance payment from a customer for a certain volume of product to be delivered over a one-year period starting in July 2011. Revenue was recognized as product was delivered and the deferred revenue obligation was recognized over the one-year period ended June 30, 2012.
Asset Retirement Obligation	'
	Asset Retirement Obligation
	In accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 410-20, Asset Retirement Obligations, we recognize reclamation obligations when incurred and record them as liabilities at fair value. In addition, a corresponding increase in the carrying amount of the related asset is recorded and depreciated over such asset’s useful life. The reclamation liability is accreted to expense over the estimated productive life of the related asset and is subject to adjustments to reflect changes in value resulting from the passage of time and revisions to the estimates of either the timing or amount of the reclamation costs.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments	'
	Fair Value of Financial Instruments
	The amounts reported in the balance sheet as current assets or liabilities, including cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable, accrued liabilities and deferred revenue approximate fair value due to the short-term maturities of these instruments.
	The amount recorded on the balance sheet pertaining to the Partnership’s long-term debt outstanding at December 31, 2013 is considered a Level 2 financial instrument, as although there is no observable quoted price, the underlying floating rate of interest is based on a published benchmark interest rate that is observable at commonly quoted intervals.
Net Income per Limited Partner Unit	'
	Net Income per Limited Partner Unit
	We have identified the General Partner’s incentive distribution rights as participating securities and compute income per unit using the two-class method under which any excess of distributions declared over net income shall be allocated to the partners based on their respective sharing of income specified in the partnership agreement. Net income per unit applicable to limited partners (including subordinated unitholders) is computed by dividing limited partners’ interest in net income, after deducting any General Partner incentive distributions, by the weighted-average number of outstanding common and subordinated units. Diluted net income per unit includes the effects of potentially dilutive units on our subordinated and common units. Basic and diluted net income per common and subordinated unit are the same as there are no potentially dilutive subordinated units outstanding.
	As the 3,750,000 Class B units do not have voting rights or rights to share in the Partnership’s periodic earnings, either through participation in its distributions or through an allocation of its undistributed earnings or losses, they are not deemed to be participating securities in their current form. In addition, the conversion of the Class B units into common units is fully contingent upon the satisfaction of defined criteria pertaining to the cumulative payment of distributions and earnings per unit of the Partnership as described in Note 11. Therefore, it is possible that the Class B units may never be converted into common units. As such, until all of the defined payment and earnings criteria are satisfied, the Class B units will not be included in our calculation of either basic or diluted earnings per unit.
Income Taxes	'
	Income Taxes
	The Partnership and sponsor are pass-through entities and are not considered taxable entities for federal tax purposes. Therefore, there is not a provision for income taxes in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements. The Partnership’s net income or loss is allocated to its partners in accordance with the partnership agreement. The partners are taxed individually on their share of the Partnership’s earnings.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements	'
	Recent Accounting Pronouncements
	In February 2013, the Financing Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued amended guidance on the recognition, measurement, and disclosure of certain obligations resulting from joint and several liability arrangements for which the total amount of the obligation is fixed at the reporting date. Such arrangements may include debt, other contractual obligations, and settled litigation and judicial rulings. The amended guidance is to be applied retrospectively to all prior periods presented. This guidance will be effective for the Partnership beginning January 1, 2014. The Partnership anticipates that the adoption of this amended guidance will not materially affect its financial position, result of operations or cash flows.
	In December 2011 and January 2013, the FASB issued amended guidance on disclosures pertaining to certain assets and liabilities that are either offset in an entity’s financial statements or those that are subject to a master netting agreement or similar arrangement. The scope of these disclosures is limited to derivatives, repurchase agreements and securities lending transactions. The Partnership adopted this guidance effective January 1, 2013, and, as it only impacts disclosures, it did not affect the Partnership’s financial position, result of operations or cash flows.
