CORPORATE STRUCTURE AND SUMMARY

CORPORATE STRUCTURE AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES	6 Months Ended

Accounting Policies [Abstract]
CORPORATE STRUCTURE AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES	CORPORATE STRUCTURE AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Nature of Operations The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements are composed of Ciner Resources LP (the “Partnership,” “CINR,” “Ciner Resources,” “we,” “us,” or “our”), a publicly traded Delaware limited partnership, and its consolidated subsidiary, Ciner Wyoming LLC (“Ciner Wyoming”), which is in the business of mining trona ore to produce soda ash. The Partnership’s operations consist solely of its investment in Ciner Wyoming. The Partnership was formed in April 2013 by Ciner Wyoming Holding Co. (“Ciner Holdings”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Ciner Resources Corporation (“Ciner Corp”). Ciner Corp is a direct wholly-owned subsidiary of Ciner Enterprises Inc. (“Ciner Enterprises”), which is a direct wholly-owned subsidiary of WE Soda Ltd., a U.K. corporation (“WE Soda”). WE Soda is a direct wholly-owned subsidiary of KEW Soda Ltd., a U.K. corporation (“KEW Soda”), which is a direct wholly-owned subsidiary of Akkan Enerji ve Madencilik Anonim Şirketi (“Akkan”). Akkan is directly and wholly owned by Turgay Ciner, the Chairman of the Ciner Group (“Ciner Group”), a Turkish conglomerate of companies engaged in energy and mining (including soda ash mining), media and shipping markets. The Partnership owns a controlling interest comprised of 51.0% membership interest in Ciner Wyoming. All of our soda ash processed is currently sold to various domestic and international customers, including ANSAC which is an affiliate for export sales. All mining and processing activities of Ciner Wyoming take place in one facility located in the Green River Basin of Wyoming. Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) applicable to interim period financial statements and reflect all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring accruals, which are necessary for fair presentation of the results of operations, financial position and cash flows for the periods presented. All intercompany transactions, balances, revenue and expenses have been eliminated in consolidation. The results of operations for the six -month periods ended June 30, 2020 and 2019 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for the full year. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes to audited consolidated financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019 (the “ 2019 Annual Report”) filed with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission on March 9, 2020. There have been no other material changes in the significant accounting policies followed by us during the six months ended June 30, 2020 from those disclosed in the 2019 Annual Report. Non-controlling interests NRP Trona LLC, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Natural Resource Partners L.P. ("NRP"), currently owns a 49.0% membership interest in Ciner Wyoming. NRP’s membership interest in Ciner Wyoming is reflected as the non-controlling interest in the Partnership’s financial results. Use of Estimates The preparation of these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, in accordance with GAAP, requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the dates of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Furthermore, we considered the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the use of estimates and assumptions used for financial reporting. While our production is considered “essential”, the COVID-19 outbreak disrupted our customers and customer segments, which had a negative impact on the demand for our products which adversely affected our operations. As of June 30, 2020, as we cannot predict the duration or the scope of the COVID-19 pandemic and its impact on our operations, the potential negative financial impact to our results cannot be reasonably estimated but could be material. As a result of these uncertainties, actual results could differ from those estimates and assumptions. If the economy or markets in which we operate remain weak or deteriorate further, our business, financial condition and results of operations may be further materially and adversely impacted. Subsequent Events We have evaluated subsequent events through the filing date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements Recently Adopted Accounting Guidance In June 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2016-13, “Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326)” (“ASU 2016-13”). This ASU introduces the current expected credit loss (CECL) model, which will require an entity to measure credit losses for certain financial instruments and financial assets, including trade receivables. Under this update, on initial recognition and at each reporting period, an entity will be required to recognize an allowance that reflects the entity’s current estimate of credit losses expected to be incurred over the life of the financial instrument. The Partnership adopted ASU 2016-13 effective January 1, 2020 and concluded there was no material impact to the Partnership’s condensed consolidated financial statements. In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-15, “Intangibles-Goodwill and Other-Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40): Customer’s Accounting for Implementation Costs Incurred in a Cloud Computing Arrangement That Is a Service Contract (a consensus of the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force)” (“ASU 2018-15”), which amends Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 350-40 (“ASC 350-40”) to address a customer’s accounting for implementation costs incurred in a cloud computing arrangement (“CCA”) that is a service contract. ASU 2018-15 amends ASC 350 and clarifies that a customer should apply ASC 350-40 to determine which implementation costs should be capitalized in a CCA. ASU 2018-15 does not expand on existing disclosure requirements except to require a description of the nature of hosting arrangements that are service contracts. Entities are permitted to apply either a retrospective or prospective transition approach to adopt the guidance. The Partnership adopted ASU 2018-15 effective January 1, 2020 and concluded there was no material impact to the Partnership’s condensed consolidated financial statements.

NET INCOME PER UNIT AND CASH DI

NET INCOME PER UNIT AND CASH DISTRIBUTION	6 Months Ended
	Jun. 30, 2020
Earnings Per Share [Abstract]
NET INCOME PER UNIT AND CASH DISTRIBUTION	NET INCOME (LOSS) PER UNIT AND CASH DISTRIBUTION Allocation of Net Income (loss) Net income (loss) per unit applicable to limited partners is computed by dividing limited partners’ interest in net income (loss) attributable to Ciner Corp, after deducting the general partner’s interest and any incentive distributions, by the weighted average number of outstanding common units. Our net income (loss) is allocated to the general partner and limited partners in accordance with their respective partnership percentages, after giving effect to priority income allocations for incentive distributions, if any, to our general partner, pursuant to our partnership agreement. Earnings in excess of distributions are allocated to the general partner and limited partners based on their respective ownership interests. Payments made to our unitholders are determined in relation to actual distributions declared and are not based on the net income (loss) allocations used in the calculation of net income (loss) per unit. In addition to the common units, we have also identified the general partner interest and incentive distribution rights (“IDRs”) as participating securities and use the two-class method when calculating the net income (loss) per unit applicable to limited partners, which is based on the weighted-average number of common units outstanding during the period. Potentially anti-dilutive units outstanding were immaterial for both the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019 . The net income (loss) attributable to limited partner unitholders and the weighted average units for calculating basic and diluted net income (loss) per limited partner units were as follows: Three Months Ended June 30, Six Months Ended June 30, (In millions, except per unit data) 2020 2019 2020 2019 Numerator: Net income (loss) attributable to Ciner Resources LP $ (3.3 ) $ 11.3 $ 3.4 $ 23.6 Less: General partner’s interest in net income (loss) — 0.3 0.1 0.5 Total limited partners’ interest in net income (loss) $ (3.3 ) $ 11.0 $ 3.3 $ 23.1 Denominator: Weighted average limited partner units outstanding: Weighted average limited partner units outstanding (basic) 19.7 19.7 19.7 19.7 Weighted average limited partner units outstanding (diluted) 19.7 19.7 19.7 19.7 Net income (loss) per limited partner units: Net income (loss) per limited partner unit (basic) $ (0.17 ) $ 0.56 $ 0.17 $ 1.17 Net income (loss) per limited partner unit (diluted) $ (0.17 ) $ 0.56 $ 0.17 $ 1.17 The calculation of limited partners’ interest in net income (loss) is as follows: Three Months Ended June 30, Six Months Ended June 30, (In millions) 2020 2019 2020 2019 Net income (loss) attributable to common unitholders: Distributions (1) $ — $ 6.7 $ 6.7 $ 13.4 (Distributions in excess)/Undistributed earnings of net income (loss) (3.3 ) 4.3 (3.4 ) 9.7 Common unitholders’ interest in net income (loss) $ (3.3 ) $ 11.0 $ 3.3 $ 23.1 (1) Distributions declared per limited partner unit for the period $ — $ 0.340 $ 0.340 $ 0.680 Quarterly Distribution Our general partner has considerable discretion in determining the amount of available cash, the amount of distributions and the decision to make any distribution. Although our partnership agreement requires that we distribute all of our available cash quarterly, there is no guarantee that we will make quarterly cash distributions to our unitholders or at any other rate, and we have no legal obligation to do so. In further efforts to achieve greater financial and liquidity flexibility during the COVID-19 pandemic, on July 31, 2020, in connection with making the distribution decision for the quarter ended June 30, 2020, each of the members of the board of managers of Ciner Wyoming approved a suspension of quarterly distributions to its members. On August 3, 2020, in connection with making the distribution decision for the quarter ended June 30, 2020, each of the members of the board of directors of our general partner approved a suspension of quarterly distributions to our unitholders in order to increase financial and liquidity flexibility during the COVID-19 pandemic. Management and the board of directors of our general partner will continue to evaluate, on a quarterly basis, whether it is appropriate to reinstate the distribution, which will be dependent in part on our cash reserves, liquidity, total debt levels and anticipated capital expenditures. General Partner Interest and Incentive Distribution Rights Our partnership agreement provides that our general partner initially will be entitled to 2.0% of all distributions that we make prior to our liquidation. Our general partner has the right, but not the obligation, to contribute up to a proportionate amount of capital to us in order to maintain its 2.0% general partner interest if we issue additional units (other than the issuance of common units upon a reset of the IDRs). Our general partner currently has an approximate 2.0% ownership interest in the Partnership. Our partnership agreement does not require that our general partner fund its capital contribution with cash. It may, instead, fund its capital contribution by contributing to us common units or other property. IDRs represent the right to receive increasing percentages ( 13.0% , 23.0% and 48.0% ) of quarterly distributions from operating surplus after we have achieved the minimum quarterly distribution and the target distribution levels. Our general partner currently holds the IDRs, but may transfer these rights separately from its general partner interest, subject to certain restrictions in our partnership agreement. Percentage Allocations of Distributions from Operating Surplus The following table illustrates the percentage allocations of distributions from operating surplus between the unitholders and our general partner based on the specified target distribution levels. The amounts set forth under the column heading “Marginal Percentage Interest in Distributions” are the percentage interests of our general partner and the unitholders in any distributions from operating surplus we distribute up to and including the corresponding amount in the column “Total Quarterly Distribution per Unit Target Amount.” The percentage interests shown for our unitholders and our general partner for the minimum quarterly distribution also apply to quarterly distribution amounts that are less than the minimum quarterly distribution. Under our partnership agreement, our general partner has considerable discretion to determine the amount of available cash (as defined therein) for distribution each quarter to the Partnership’s unitholders, including the discretion to establish cash reserves that would limit the amount of available cash eligible for distribution to the Partnership’s unitholders for any quarter. The Partnership does not guarantee that it will pay the target amount of the minimum quarterly distribution listed below (or any distributions) on its units in any quarter. The percentage interests set forth below for our general partner (1) include its 2.0% general partner interest, (2) assume that our general partner has contributed any additional capital necessary to maintain its 2.0% general partner interest, (3) assume that our general partner has not transferred its IDRs and (4) assume that we do not issue additional classes of equity securities.

Each equipment financing under the Ciner Wyoming Equipment Financing Arrangement will be evidenced by the execution of one or more equipment notes (including the Initial Secured Note) that incorporate the terms and conditions of the Master Agreement (each, an “Equipment Note”). In order to secure the payment and performance of Ciner Wyoming’s obligations under the Ciner Wyoming Equipment Financing Arrangement and other debt obligations owed by Ciner Wyoming to Lender, Ciner Wyoming granted to the Lender a continuing security interest in all of Ciner Wyoming’s right, title and interest in and to the Equipment (as defined in the Master Agreement) and certain related collateral. The Ciner Wyoming Equipment Financing Arrangement (1) incorporates all covenants of Ciner Wyoming that are based upon a specified level or ratio relating to assets, liabilities, indebtedness, rentals, net worth, cash flow, earnings, profitability, or any other accounting-based measurement or test, now or hereafter existing, in the Ciner Wyoming Credit Facility (as defined herein), or in any applicable replacement credit facility accepted in writing by Lender and (2) includes customary events of default subject to applicable grace periods, including, among others, (i) payment defaults, (ii) certain mergers or changes in control of Ciner Wyoming, (iii) cross defaults with certain other indebtedness (a) to which the Lender is a party or (b) to third parties in excess of $10 million , and (iv) the commencement of certain insolvency proceedings or related events identified in the Master Agreement. Upon the occurrence of an event of default, in its discretion, the Lender may exercise certain remedies, including, among others, the ability to accelerate the maturity of any Equipment Note such that all amounts thereunder will become immediately due and payable, to take possession of the Equipment identified in any Equipment Note, and to charge Ciner Wyoming a default rate of interest on all then outstanding or thereafter incurred obligations under the Ciner Wyoming Equipment Financing Arrangement. Among other things, the Initial Secured Note: • has a principal amount of $30,000,000 ; • has a maturity date of March 26, 2028; • shall be payable by Ciner Wyoming to Lender in 96 consecutive monthly installments of principal and interest commencing on April 26, 2020 and continuing thereafter until the maturity date of the Initial Secured Note, which shall be in the amount of approximately $307,000 for the first 95 monthly installments and approximately $4,307,000 for the final monthly installment; and • entitles Ciner Wyoming to prepay all (but not less than all) of the outstanding principal balance of the Initial Secured Note (together with all accrued interest and other charges and amounts owed thereunder) at any time after one (1) year from the date of the Initial Secured Note, subject to Ciner Wyoming paying to Lender an additional prepayment amount determined by the amount of principal balance prepaid and the date such prepayment is made. In connection with the Second Ciner Wyoming Amendment (as defined below), the Master Agreement was also amended to incorporate, among other things, the modified covenants set forth in the Second Ciner Wyoming Amendment related to consolidated leverage ratios of Ciner Wyoming. Ciner Wyoming’s balance under the Ciner Wyoming Equipment Financing Arrangement at June 30, 2020 was $29.3 million ( $29.1 million net of financing costs). During six months ended June 30, 2020 , Ciner Wyoming recorded $0.2 million of debt issuance costs in association with the Ciner Wyoming Equipment Financing Arrangement. At June 30, 2020 , Ciner Wyoming was in compliance with all financial covenants of the Ciner Wyoming Equipment Financing Arrangement. Ciner Wyoming Credit Facility On August 1, 2017, Ciner Wyoming entered into a Credit Agreement (as amended, the “Ciner Wyoming Credit Facility”) with each of the lenders listed on the respective signature pages thereof and PNC Bank, National Association (“PNC Bank”), as administrative agent, swing line lender and a Letter of Credit (“L/C”) issuer. On February 28, 2020, the Ciner Wyoming Credit Facility was amended to, among other things, increase flexibility for debt financing to be incurred by Ciner Wyoming in connection with its new natural gas-fired turbine co-generation facility, including, among other things (i) increasing the basket for purchase money indebtedness permitted from $5.0 million to $30.0 million ; (ii) adding procedures for transition to a benchmark other than the Eurodollar Rate to determine the applicable interest rate (including reference to the Secured Overnight Financing Rate published by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York), with provisions applying to that alternate benchmark; and (iii) adding customary new provisions relating to qualified financial contracts, sanctions and anti-money laundering rules and laws. On July 27, 2020, the Ciner Wyoming Credit Facility was amended (the “Second Ciner Wyoming Amendment”) to increase our financial and liquidity flexibility in particular for the next few quarters that may be negatively impacted by COVID-19. The Second Ciner Wyoming Amendment, among other things, (i) increases for a limited period certain restrictive debt covenants that require the Company and its subsidiaries to maintain a certain consolidated leverage ratios and consolidated interest coverage ratios at the end of each period, (ii) provides a tiered interest rate structure based on applicable covenant ratios and establish a 0.50% interest floor, (iii) effectuates changes to collateral restricted disbursements and covenant to give security if covenant ratios are equal to or above certain levels. The Second Ciner Wyoming Amendment also provides for covenants to restrict certain payments and to give security in certain personal property of Ciner Wyoming following a fiscal quarter in which the consolidated leverage ratio is equal to or higher than 3.50 :1.0, so long as the applicable consolidated leverage ratio limit is otherwise adhered to. Any such security shall be released upon achievement of a consolidated leverage ratio less than 2.00 :1.0 at the end of any quarter. Fiscal Quarter ending Consolidated Leverage Ratio September 30, 2017 - June 30, 2020 3.00:1.0 September 30, 2020 3.50:1.0 December 31, 2020 4.50:1.0 March 31, 2021 4.50:1.0 June 30, 2021 4.00:1.0 September 30, 2021 3.50:1.0 December 31, 2021 and each fiscal quarter ending thereafter 3.00:1.0 The Second Ciner Wyoming Amendment added additional restrictions to (i) certain restricted payments (which includes cash dividends, distributions or other restricted payments) by requiring the consolidated leverage ratio, both before and after giving effect to such restricted payment, to be less than 2.50 :1.0 (previously 3.00 :1.0), (ii) permitted acquisitions by requiring that the consolidated leverage ratio, both before and after giving effect to a permitted acquisition, be less than 2.50 :1.0, and (iii) liens by restricting the grant of any lien on any mineral right or mineral reserve, subject to certain exceptions. Once any restricted payment (other than a permitted tax distribution) or permitted acquisition is consummated by Ciner Wyoming, or one of its subsidiaries, the consolidated leverage ratio will reset to a maximum of 3.00 :1.0. The Second Ciner Wyoming Amendment also added a covenant that states if the consolidated leverage ratio thereunder is: (i) below 3.50 :1.0 as of the end of any fiscal quarter, any borrowings under the Ciner Wyoming Credit Agreement will be unsecured; or (ii) greater than or equal to 3.50 :1.0 as of the end of any fiscal quarter, any borrowings under the Ciner Wyoming Credit Agreement will be secured by substantially all of Ciner Wyoming’s personal property, subject to certain customary exceptions, provided, that any such security shall be released upon achievement of a consolidated leverage ratio less than 2.00 :1.0 at the end of any fiscal quarter. Prior to the Second Ciner Wyoming Amendment, a consolidated leverage ratio in excess of 3.00 :1.0 for a quarterly period would constitute an event of default, whereas following effectiveness of the Second Ciner Wyoming Amendment, for each quarterly period where the consolidated leverage ratio is permitted to be in excess of 3.50 :1.0, a consolidated leverage ratio in excess of 3.50 :1.0 for such quarterly period would not by itself constitute an event of default so long as the applicable consolidated leverage ratio limit is otherwise adhered to, but would permit the administrative agent and lenders under the Ciner Wyoming Credit Facility to obtain a lien on certain personal property of Ciner Wyoming. The Ciner Wyoming Credit Facility is a $225.0 million senior revolving credit facility with a syndicate of lenders, which will mature on the fifth anniversary of the closing date of such credit facility. The Ciner Wyoming Credit Facility provides for revolving loans to fund working capital requirements, capital expenditures, to consummate permitted acquisitions and for all other lawful partnership purposes. The Ciner Wyoming Credit Facility has an accordion feature that allows Ciner Wyoming to increase the available revolving borrowings under the facility by up to an additional $75.0 million , subject to Ciner Wyoming receiving increased commitments from existing lenders or new commitments from new lenders and the satisfaction of certain other conditions. In addition, the Ciner Wyoming Credit Facility includes a sublimit up to $20.0 million for same-day swing line advances and a sublimit up to $40.0 million for letters of credit. Ciner Wyoming’s obligations under the Ciner Wyoming Credit Facility are currently unsecured. The Ciner Wyoming Credit Facility contains various covenants and restrictive provisions that limit (subject to certain exceptions) Ciner Wyoming’s ability to: • make distributions on or redeem or repurchase units; • incur or guarantee additional debt; • make certain investments and acquisitions; • incur certain liens or permit them to exist; • enter into certain types of transactions with affiliates of Ciner Wyoming; • merge or consolidate with another company; and • transfer, sell or otherwise dispose of assets. The Ciner Wyoming Credit Facility also required quarterly maintenance of a consolidated leverage ratio (as defined in the Ciner Wyoming Credit Facility) of not more than 3.00 :1.0 as of June 30, 2020 and a consolidated interest coverage ratio (as defined in the Ciner Wyoming Credit Facility) of not less than 3.00 :1.0. Effective as of the Second Ciner Wyoming Amendment, the consolidated leverage ratio as of the end of each fiscal quarter shall not be greater than the table shown above. The Ciner Wyoming Credit Facility contains events of default customary for transactions of this nature, including (i) failure to make payments required under the Ciner Wyoming Credit Facility, (ii) events of default resulting from failure to comply with covenants and financial ratios in the Ciner Wyoming Credit Facility, (iii) the occurrence of a change of control, (iv) the institution of insolvency or similar proceedings against Ciner Wyoming and (v) the occurrence of a default under any other material indebtedness Ciner Wyoming may have. Upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an event of default, subject to the terms and conditions of the Ciner Wyoming Credit Facility, the administrative agent shall, at the request of the Required Lenders (as defined in the Ciner Wyoming Credit Facility), or may, with the consent of the Required Lenders, terminate all outstanding commitments under the Ciner Wyoming Credit Facility and may declare any outstanding principal of the Ciner Wyoming Credit Facility debt, together with accrued and unpaid interest, to be immediately due and payable. Under the Ciner Wyoming Credit Facility, a change of control is triggered if Ciner Corp and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, directly or indirectly, cease to own all of the equity interests, or cease to have the ability to elect a majority of the board of directors (or similar governing body) of our general partner (or any entity that performs the functions of the Partnership’s general partner). In addition, a change of control would be triggered if the Partnership ceases to own at least 50.1% of the economic interests in Ciner Wyoming or ceases to have the ability to elect a majority of the members of Ciner Wyoming’s board of managers. Loans under the Ciner Wyoming Credit Facility bear interest at Ciner Wyoming’s option at either: • a Base Rate, which equals the highest of (i) the federal funds rate in effect on such day plus 0.50% , (ii) the administrative agent’s prime rate in effect on such day or (iii) one-month LIBOR plus 1.0% , in each case, plus an applicable margin; or • the Eurodollar Rate plus an applicable margin; provided , that with respect to an applicable loan, if the Eurodollar Rate has ceased or will cease to be provided, if the regulatory supervisor for the administrator of the Eurodollar Rate or a governmental authority having jurisdiction over the administrative agent determine that the Eurodollar Rate is no longer representative or if the administrative agent determines that similar U.S. dollar-denominated credit facilities are being executed or modified to incorporate or adopt a new benchmark interest rate to replace the Eurodollar Rate, the administrative agent and Ciner Wyoming may establish an alternative interest rate for the applicable loan. Effective as of the Second Ciner Wyoming Amendment, the Ciner Wyoming Credit Facility will have an interest rate floor of 0.50% . As of June 30, 2020, the unused portion of the Ciner Wyoming Credit Facility was subject to a commitment fee ranging from 0.225% to 0.300% per annum based on Ciner Wyoming’s then current consolidated leverage ratio. Effective as of the Second Ciner Wyoming Amendment, based on Ciner Wyoming’s current consolidated leverage ratio, the unused portion of the Ciner Wyoming Credit Facility is subject to a per annum commitment fee and the applicable margin of the interest rate under the Ciner Wyoming Credit Facility will be determined as follows: Pricing Tier Consolidated Leverage Ratio Eurodollar Rate Loans Base Rate Loans Commitment Fee 1 < 1.25:1.0 1.500% 0.500% 0.250% 2 ≥ 1.25:1.0 but < 1.75:1.0 1.750% 0.750% 0.275% 3 ≥ 1.75:1.0 but < 2.25:1.0 2.000% 1.000% 0.300% 4 ≥ 2.25:1.0 but < 3.00:1.0 2.250% 1.250% 0.375% 5 ≥ 3.00:1.0 but < 3.50:1.0 2.500% 1.500% 0.375% 6 ≥ 3.50:1.0 but < 4.00:1.0 2.750% 1.750% 0.425% 7 ≥ 4.00:1.0 3.000% 2.000% 0.475% At June 30, 2020 , Ciner Wyoming was in compliance with all financial covenants of the Ciner Wyoming Credit Facility. Ciner Resources Credit Facility On August 1, 2017, the Partnership entered into a Credit Agreement (as amended, the “Ciner Resources Credit Facility”) with each of the lenders listed on the respective signature pages thereof and PNC Bank, as administrative agent, swing line lender and an L/C issuer. On February 28, 2020, the Ciner Resources Credit Facility was amended to, among other things, increase flexibility for debt financing to be incurred by Ciner Wyoming in connection with its new natural gas-fired turbine co-generation facility, including, among other things (i) increasing the basket for purchase money indebtedness permitted under the Ciner Resources Credit Facility from $5.0 million to $30.0 million ; (ii) adding procedures under the Ciner Resources Credit Facility for transition to a benchmark other than the Eurodollar Rate to determine the applicable interest rate (including reference to the Secured Overnight Financing Rate published by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York), with provisions applying to that alternate benchmark; and (iii) adding customary new provisions relating to qualified financial contracts, sanctions and anti-money laundering rules and laws. On July 27, 2020, the Ciner Resources Credit Facility was amended (the “Second Ciner Resources Amendment”) to increase our financial and liquidity flexibility in particular for the next few quarters that may be negatively impacted by COVID-19. The Second Ciner Resources Amendment, among other things, increased the consolidated leverage ratios as set forth in the table below, provided increased interest pricing to allow for higher leverage ratios, and modified procedures for transition to a benchmark other than the Eurodollar Rate to determine the applicable interest rate. Fiscal Quarter ending Consolidated Leverage Ratio September 30, 2017 - June 30, 2020 3.00:1.0 September 30, 2020 3.50:1.0 December 31, 2020 4.50:1.0 March 31, 2021 4.50:1.0 June 30, 2021 4.00:1.0 September 30, 2021 3.50:1.0 December 31, 2021 and each fiscal quarter ending thereafter 3.00:1.0 The Second Ciner Resources Amendment added additional restrictions to (i) certain restricted payments (which includes cash dividends, distributions or other restricted payments) by requiring the consolidated leverage ratio, both before and after giving effect to such restricted payment, to be less than 2.50 :1.0 (previously 3.00 :1.0), and (ii) permitted acquisitions by requiring that the consolidated leverage ratio, both before and after giving effect to a permitted acquisition, be less than 2.50 :1.0. Once any restricted payment (other than a permitted tax distribution) or permitted acquisition is consummated by the Partnership or its subsidiaries, the consolidated leverage ratio will reset to a maximum of 3.00 :1.0. The Ciner Resources Credit Facility is a $10.0 million senior secured revolving credit facility with a syndicate of lenders, which will mature on the fifth anniversary of the closing date of such credit facility. The Ciner Resources Credit Facility provides for revolving loans to be available to fund distributions on the Partnership’s units and working capital requirements and capital expenditures, to consummate permitted acquisitions and for all other lawful partnership purposes. The Ciner Resources Credit Facility includes a sublimit up to $5.0 million for same-day swing line advances and a sublimit up to $5.0 million for letters of credit. The Partnership’s obligations under the Ciner Resources Credit Facility are guaranteed by each of the Partnership’s material domestic subsidiaries other than Ciner Wyoming. In addition, the Partnership’s obligations under the Ciner Resources Credit Facility are secured by a pledge of substantially all of the Partnership’s assets (subject to certain exceptions), including the membership interests held in Ciner Wyoming by the Partnership. The Ciner Resources Credit Facility contains various covenants and restrictive provisions that limit (subject to certain exceptions) the Partnership’s ability to (and the ability of the Partnership’s subsidiaries, including without limitation, Ciner Wyoming to): • make distributions on or redeem or repurchase units; • incur or guarantee additional debt; • make certain investments and acquisitions; • incur certain liens or permit them to exist; • enter into certain types of transactions with affiliates; • merge or consolidate with another company; and • transfer, sell or otherwise dispose of assets. The Ciner Resources Credit Facility also required quarterly maintenance of a consolidated leverage ratio (as defined in the Ciner Resources Credit Facility) of not more than 3.00 :1.0 as of June 30, 2020 and a consolidated interest coverage ratio (as defined in the Ciner Resources Credit Facility) of not less than 3.00 :1.0. Effective as of the Second Ciner Resources Amendment, the consolidated leverage ratio as of the end of each fiscal quarter shall not be greater than the table shown above. In addition, the Ciner Resources Credit Facility contains events of default customary for transactions of this nature, including (i) failure to make payments required under the Ciner Resources Credit Facility, (ii) events of default resulting from failure to comply with covenants and financial ratios, (iii) the occurrence of a change of control, (iv) the institution of insolvency or similar proceedings against the Partnership or its material subsidiaries and (v) the occurrence of a default under any other material indebtedness the Partnership (or any of its subsidiaries) may have, including the Ciner Wyoming Credit Facility. Upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an event of default, subject to the terms and conditions of the Ciner Resources Credit Facility, the lenders may terminate all outstanding commitments under the Ciner Resources Credit Facility and may declare any outstanding principal of the Ciner Resources Credit Facility debt, together with accrued and unpaid interest, to be immediately due and payable. Under the Ciner Resources Credit Facility, a change of control is triggered if Ciner Corp and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, directly or indirectly, cease to own all of the equity interests, or cease to have the ability to elect a majority of the board of directors (or similar governing body) of, Ciner Holdings or Ciner GP (or any entity that performs the functions of the Partnership’s general partner). In addition, a change of control would be triggered if the Partnership ceases to own at least 50.1% of the economic interests in Ciner Wyoming or ceases to have the ability to elect a majority of the members of Ciner Wyoming’s board of managers. Loans under the Ciner Resources Credit Facility bear interest at our option at either: • a Base Rate, which equals the highest of (i) the federal funds rate in effect on such day plus 0.50% , (ii) the administrative agent’s prime rate in effect on such day or (iii) one-month LIBOR plus 1.0% , in each case, plus an applicable margin; or • the Eurodollar Rate plus an applicable margin; provided , that with respect to an applicable loan, if the Eurodollar Rate has ceased or will cease to be provided, if the regulatory supervisor for the administrator of the Eurodollar Rate or a governmental authority having jurisdiction over the administrative agent determine that the Eurodollar Rate is no longer representative or if the administrative agent determines that similar U.S. dollar-denominated credit facilities are being executed or modified to incorporate or adopt a new benchmark interest rate to replace the Eurodollar Rate, the administrative agent and the Partnership may establish an alternative interest rate for the applicable loan. Effective as of the Second Ciner Resources Amendment, the Ciner Resources Credit Facility will have an interest rate floor of 0.50% . As of June 30, 2020, the unused portion of the Ciner Resources Credit Facility was subject to a commitment fee ranging from 0.225% to 0.300% per annum based on Ciner Resources’ then current consolidated leverage ratio. Effective as of the Second Ciner Resources Amendment, based on Ciner Resources’ current consolidated leverage ratio, the unused portion of the Ciner Resources Credit Facility is subject to a per annum commitment fee and the applicable margin of the interest rate under the Ciner Resources Credit Facility will be determined as follows: Pricing Tier Consolidated Leverage Ratio Eurodollar Rate Loans Base Rate Loans Commitment Fee 1 < 1.25:1.0 1.500% 0.500% 0.250% 2 ≥ 1.25:1.0 but < 1.75:1.0 1.750% 0.750% 0.275% 3 ≥ 1.75:1.0 but < 2.25:1.0 2.000% 1.000% 0.300% 4 ≥ 2.25:1.0 but < 3.00:1.0 2.250% 1.250% 0.375% 5 ≥ 3.00:1.0 but < 3.50:1.0 2.500% 1.500% 0.375% 6 ≥ 3.50:1.0 but < 4.00:1.0 2.750% 1.750% 0.425% 7 ≥ 4.00:1.0 3.000% 2.000% 0.475% At June 30, 2020 , Ciner Resources was in compliance with all financial covenants of the Ciner Resources Credit Facility. WE Soda and Ciner Enterprises Facilities Agreement On August 1, 2018, Ciner Enterprises, the entity that indirectly owns and controls our general partner, refinanced its existing credit agreement and entered into a new facilities agreement, to which WE Soda and Ciner Enterprises (as borrowers), and KEW Soda, WE Soda, certain related parties and Ciner Enterprises, Ciner Holdings and Ciner Corp (as original guarantors and together with the borrowers, the “Ciner obligors”), are parties (as amended and restated or otherwise modified, the “Facilities Agreement”), and certain related finance documents. The Facilities Agreement expires on August 1, 2025. Even though neither the Partnership nor Ciner Wyoming is a party or a guarantor under the Facilities Agreement, while any amounts are outstanding under the Facilities Agreement we will be indirectly affected by certain affirmative and restrictive covenants that apply to WE Soda and its subsidiaries (which include us). Besides the customary covenants and restrictions, the Facilities Agreement includes provisions that, without a waiver or amendment approved by lenders whose commitments are more than 66-2/3% of the total commitments under the Facilities Agreement to undertake such action, would (i) prevent certain transactions (including loans) with our affiliates, including such transactions that could reasonably be expected to materially and adversely affect the interests of certain finance parties, (ii) restrict the ability to amend our limited partnership agreement or the general partner’s limited liability company agreement or our other constituency documents if such amendment could reasonably be expected to materially and adversely affect the interests of the lenders to the Facilities Agreement; (iii) restrict the amount of our capital expenditures if certain ratios are not achieved by the Ciner obligors thereunder; and (iv) prevent actions that enable certain restrictions or prohibitions on our ability to upstream cash (including via distributions) to the borrowers under the Facilities Agreement. In addition, while the general partner’s interest is not subject to a lien under the Facilities Agreement, Ciner Enterprises’ ownership in Ciner Holdings, which directly owns the general partner, is subject to a lien under the Facilities Agreement, which enables the lenders under the Facilities Agreement to foreclose on such collateral and take control of the general partner if any of WE Soda or KEW Soda or certain of their related parties, or Ciner Enterprises, Ciner Corp or Ciner Holdings is unable to satisfy its respective obligations under the Facilities Agreement. In response to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, on July 24, 2020, the Ciner obligors entered into the Amendment and Restatement Agreement dated as of July 24, 2020, which amended the Facilities Agreement. As of June 30, 2020, after giving effect to the July 24, 2020 Amendment and Restatement Agreement, WE Soda was in compliance with the Facilities Agreement. However given the uncertainty surrounding the negative financial impact of COVID-19 on the economy, WE Soda management anticipates that, in the absence of a waiver, there are scenarios whereby WE Soda may not be in compliance with certain covenants within the next twelve months and there is no assurance that such waiver may be obtained, if required.

Retirement Benefits [Abstract]
EMPLOYEE COMPENSATION	EMPLOYEE COMPENSATION The Partnership participates in various benefit plans offered and administered by Ciner Corp and is allocated its portions of the annual costs related thereto. The specific plans are as follows: Retirement Plans - Benefits provided under the pension plan for salaried employees and pension plan for hourly employees (collectively, the “Retirement Plans”) are based upon years of service and average compensation for the highest 60 consecutive months of the employee’s last 120 months of service, as defined. Each Retirement Plan covers substantially all full-time employees hired before May 1, 2001. Ciner Corp’s Retirement Plans had a net unfunded liability balance of $53.0 million and $54.8 million at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019 , respectively. Ciner Corp’s current funding policy is to contribute an amount within the range of the minimum required and the maximum tax-deductible contribution. The Partnership’s allocated portion of the Retirement Plan’s net periodic pension costs for the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019 were a benefit of $(0.3) million and expense of $0.6 million , respectively, and six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019 were a benefit of $(0.7) million and expense of $0.8 million , respectively. Savings Plan - The 401(k) retirement plan (the “401(k) Plan”) covers all eligible hourly and salaried employees. Eligibility is limited to all domestic residents and any foreign expatriates who are in the United States indefinitely. The 401(k) Plan permits employees to contribute specified percentages of their compensation, while the Partnership makes contributions based upon specified percentages of employee contributions. Participants hired on or subsequent to May 1, 2001, will receive an additional contribution from the Partnership based on a percentage of the participant’s base pay. Contributions made to the 401(k) Plan for the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019 were $0.7 million and $0.5 million , respectively, and $2.3 million and $1.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019 . Postretirement Benefits - Most of the Partnership’s employees are eligible for postretirement benefits other than pensions if they reach retirement age while still employed. The postretirement benefits are accounted for by Ciner Corp on an accrual basis over an employee’s period of service. The postretirement plan, excluding pensions, are not funded, and Ciner Corp has the right to modify or terminate the plan. The post-retirement plan had a net unfunded liability of $13.3 million and $13.8 million at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019 , respectively. The Partnership’s allocated portion of postretirement costs (benefit) for the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019 were $0.3 million expense and $(0.6) million benefit, respectively, and six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019 were $0.5 million expense and $(1.2) million

EQUITY - BASED COMPENSATION

EQUITY - BASED COMPENSATION	6 Months Ended
	Jun. 30, 2020
Share-based Payment Arrangement [Abstract]
EQUITY - BASED COMPENSATION	EQUITY - BASED COMPENSATION In July 2013, our general partner established the Ciner Resource Partners LLC 2013 Long-Term Incentive Plan (as amended to date, the “Plan” or “LTIP”). The Plan provides for awards in the form of common units, phantom units, distribution equivalent rights (“DERs”), cash awards and other unit-based awards. The key terms of our time restricted unit awards (“Time Restricted Unit Awards”), total return restricted performance unit awards (“TR Performance Unit Awards”) and performance based unit awards based on the achievement of certain financial, operating and safety-related performance metrics (“2019 Performance Unit Awards”), including all financial disclosures, are set forth in Part II, Item 8. “Financial Statements and Supplementary Data” of our 2019 Annual Report. All employee, officers, consultants and non-employee directors of us and our parents and subsidiaries are eligible to be selected to participate in the Plan. As of June 30, 2020 , subject to further adjustment as provided in the Plan, a total of 0.7 million common units were available for awards under the Plan. Any common units tendered by a participant in payment of the tax liability with respect to an award, including common units withheld from any such award, will not be available for future awards under the Plan. Common units awarded under the Plan may be reserved or made available from our authorized and unissued common units or from common units reacquired (through open market transactions or otherwise). Any common units issued under the Plan through the assumption or substitution of outstanding grants from an acquired company will not reduce the number of common units available for awards under the Plan. If any common units subject to an award under the Plan are forfeited, those forfeited units will again be available for awards under the Plan. The Partnership has made a policy election to recognize forfeitures as they occur in lieu of estimating future forfeiture activity under the Plan. Non-employee Director Awards During the six months ended June 30, 2020 , a total of 21,720 common units were granted and fully vested to non-employee directors compared to 8,832 common units were granted during the six months ended June 30, 2019 . The grant date average fair value per unit of these awards was $9.88 and $25.48 for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively. The total fair value of these awards were approximately $0.2 million during each of the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019. Time Restricted Unit Awards We grant restricted unit awards in the form of common units to certain employees that vest over a specified period of time, usually between one to three years , with vesting based on continued employment as of each applicable vesting date. Award recipients are entitled to distributions subject to the same restrictions as the underlying common unit. The awards are classified as equity awards, and are accounted for at fair value at grant date.

Total Return Performance Unit Awards We grant TR Performance Unit Awards to certain employees. The TR Performance Unit Awards represent the right to receive a number of common units at a future date based on the achievement of market-based performance requirements in accordance with the TR Performance Unit Award agreement, and also include DERs representing the right to receive an amount equal to the accumulated cash distributions made during the period with respect to each common unit issued upon vesting. The TR Performance Unit Awards vest at the end of the performance period, usually between two to three years from the date of the grant. Performance is measured on the achievement of a specified level of total return (“TR”), relative to the TR of a peer group comprised of other limited partnerships. The potential payout ranges from 0 - 200% of the grant target quantity and is adjusted based on our total return performance relative to the peer group. For purposes of the table below the number of units are included at target quantity. We utilized a Monte Carlo simulation model to estimate the grant date fair value of TR Performance Unit Awards granted to employees, adjusted for market conditions. This type of award requires the input of highly subjective assumptions, including expected volatility and expected distribution yield. Historical and implied volatilities were used in estimating the fair value of these awards. The following table presents a summary of activity on the TR Performance Unit Awards: Six Months Ended June 30, 2020 Six Months Ended June 30, 2019 (Units in whole numbers) Number of Common Units Grant-Date Average Fair Value per Unit (1) Number of Common Units Grant-Date Average Fair Value per Unit (1) Unvested at the beginning of period 20,173 $ 41.79 52,974 $ 42.22 Granted — — — — Vested (9,058 ) 42.21 (4,766 ) 43.93 Forfeited — — — — Unvested at the end of the period 11,115 $ 41.59 48,208 $ 42.10 (1) Determined by dividing the aggregate grant date fair value of awards by the number of common units. 2019 Performance Unit Awards We granted 2019 Performance Unit Awards that are based upon the achievement of certain financial, operating and safety-related performance metrics pursuant to our LTIP, and approved grants of 2019 Performance Unit Awards to certain of our executives. In addition to being subject to all the general terms and conditions of our LTIP, the vesting of the 2019 Performance Unit Awards is linked to a weighted average consisting of internal performance metrics (as each is defined in the corresponding 2019 Performance Unit Award Agreement, and collectively referred to herein as the “Performance Metrics”) during a three-year performance period (the “Measurement Period”). The vesting of the 2019 Performance Unit Awards, and number of common units of the Partnership distributable pursuant to such vesting, is dependent on our performance relative to a pre-established budget over the Measurement Period (provided that the awardee remains continuously employed with our general partner or its affiliates or satisfies other service-related criteria through the end of the Measurement Period, except in certain cases of Changes in Control (as defined in our LTIP) or the awardee’s death or disability). Vested 2019 Performance Unit Awards are to be settled in our common units, with the number of such common units payable under the award for a given year in the Measurement Period to be calculated by multiplying the target number provided in the corresponding 2019 Performance Unit Award Agreement by a payout multiplier, which may range from 0% - 200% in each case, as determined by aggregating the corresponding weighted average assigned to the Performance Metrics. The 2019 Performance Unit Awards also contain DERs and entitle the recipient the right to receive an amount equal to the accumulated cash distributions made during the period with respect to each common unit issued. Upon vesting of the 2019 Performance Unit Awards, the award recipient is entitled to receive a cash payment equal to the sum of the distribution equivalents accumulated with respect to vested 2019 Performance Unit Awards during the period beginning on January 1, 2019 and ending on the applicable vesting date. The 2019 Performance Unit Awards granted to these award recipients have a performance cycle beginning on January 1, 2019 and ending December 31, 2021.

COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES	COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES From time to time we are party to various claims and legal proceedings related to our business. Although the outcome of these proceedings cannot be predicted with certainty, management does not currently expect any of the legal proceedings we are involved in to have a material effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. We cannot predict the nature of any future claims or proceedings, nor the ultimate size or outcome of existing claims and legal proceedings and whether any damages resulting from them will be covered by insurance. Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements We have a self-bond agreement (the “Self-Bond Agreement”) with the Wyoming Department of Environmental Quality (“WDEQ”) under which we currently commit to pay directly for reclamation costs. The amount of the bond was $36.2 million at both June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019 . In May 2019, the State of Wyoming enacted legislation that limits our and other mine operators’ ability to self-bond, which will require us to seek other acceptable financial instruments to provide additional assurances for our reclamation obligations. We expect to provide such assurances by securing a third-party surety bond no later than November 2020 but we cannot guarantee the availability, costs and terms of such surety bond. As of the date of this Report, we anticipate that any such impact on our net income and liquidity will be limited. The amount of such surety guarantee is subject to change upon periodic re-evaluation by the WDEQ’s Land Quality Division.

AGREEMENTS AND TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES	6 Months Ended

Related Party Transactions [Abstract]
AGREEMENTS AND TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES	AGREEMENTS AND TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES Ciner Corp is the exclusive sales agent for the Partnership and through its membership in ANSAC, Ciner Corp is responsible for promoting and increasing the use and sale of soda ash and other refined or processed sodium products produced. ANSAC operates on a cooperative service-at-cost basis to its members such that typically any annual profit or loss is passed through to the members. As previously disclosed, the Partnership was informed on November 9, 2018 that Ciner Corp, an affiliate of the Partnership, had as part of its strategic initiative to gain better direct access and control of international customers and logistics and the ability to leverage the expertise of Ciner Group, the world’s largest natural soda ash producer, delivered a notice to terminate its membership in ANSAC, a cooperative that serves as the primary international distribution channel for the Partnership and two other U.S. manufacturers of trona-based soda ash. Such termination was expected to be effective as of the end of day on December 31, 2021. On July 27, 2020, ANSAC and the members thereof entered into an agreement, effective as of July 24, 2020, that, among other things, terminates Ciner Corp’s membership in ANSAC effective as of December 31, 2020 (the “ANSAC termination date”), a year earlier than previously announced (the “ANSAC Early Exit Agreement”). For a limited period after December 31, 2020, Ciner Corp will continue to sell, at substantially lower volumes, product to ANSAC for export sales purposes, with a fixed rate per ton selling, general and administrative expense, and will also purchase a limited amount of export logistics services. Between now and the ANSAC termination date, Ciner Corp continues to have full ANSAC membership benefits and services. Potential liabilities associated with exiting ANSAC are not currently expected to be material. Historically, by design and prior to Ciner Corp’s exit from ANSAC, ANSAC managed most of our international sales, marketing and logistics, and as a result, was our largest customer for the periods ended June 30, 2020 and 2019 , accounting for 45.1% and 61.2% , respectively, of our net sales. Although ANSAC has been our largest customer for the aforementioned periods, we anticipate that the impact of such termination on our net sales, net income and liquidity will be limited. We made this determination primarily based upon the belief that we will continue to be one of the lowest cost producers of soda ash in the global market. With a low-cost position combined with better direct access and control of our customers and logistics and the ability to leverage Ciner Group’s expertise in these areas, we believe we will be more than able to adequately replace these net sales. Post-ANSAC International Export Capabilities In accordance with the ANSAC Early Exit Agreement, Ciner Corp will begin marketing soda ash on our behalf directly into international markets and building its international sales, marketing and supply chain infrastructure. We will also have access to utilize the distribution network that has already been established by the global Ciner Group. We believe that by having the option of combining our volumes with Ciner Group’s soda ash exports from Turkey, Ciner Corp’s strategic exit from ANSAC will allow us to leverage global Ciner Group’s, the world’s largest natural soda ash producer, soda ash operations which we expect will improve our ability to optimize our market share both domestically and internationally. Being able to work with the global Ciner Group will provide us with the opportunity to better attract and more efficiently serve larger global customers. In addition, the Partnership will need access to an international logistics infrastructure that includes, among other things, a domestic port for export capabilities. These export capabilities are currently being developed by an affiliated company and options being evaluated range from continued outsourcing in the near term to developing its own port capabilities in the longer term. All actual sales and marketing costs incurred by Ciner Corp are charged directly to the Partnership. Selling, general and administrative expenses also include amounts charged to the Partnership by its affiliates principally consisting of salaries, benefits, office supplies, professional fees, travel, rent and other costs of certain assets used by the Partnership. On October 23, 2015, the Partnership entered into a Services Agreement (the “Services Agreement”) with our general partner and Ciner Corp. Pursuant to the Services Agreement, Ciner Corp has agreed to provide the Partnership with certain corporate, selling, marketing, and general and administrative services, in return for which the Partnership has agreed to pay Ciner Corp an annual management fee and reimburse Ciner Corp for certain third-party costs incurred in connection with providing such services. In addition, under the limited liability company agreement governing Ciner Wyoming, Ciner Wyoming reimburses us for employees who operate our assets and for support provided to Ciner Wyoming. These transactions do not necessarily represent arm's length transactions and may not represent all costs if Ciner Wyoming operated on a standalone basis. The total selling, general and administrative costs charged to the Partnership by affiliates were as follows: Three Months Ended June 30, Six Months Ended June 30, (In millions) 2020 2019 2020 2019 Ciner Corp $ 4.0 $ 4.2 $ 7.5 $ 8.8 ANSAC (1) 0.4 1.1 1.0 2.0 Total selling, general and administrative expenses - affiliates $ 4.4 $ 5.3 $ 8.5 $ 10.8 (1) ANSAC allocates its expenses to its members using a pro-rata calculation based on sales.

FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS	6 Months Ended
	Jun. 30, 2020
Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract]
FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS	FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS The Partnership measures certain financial and non-financial assets and liabilities at fair value on a recurring basis. Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in the principal or most advantageous market in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. Fair value disclosures are reflected in a three-level hierarchy, maximizing the use of observable inputs and minimizing the use of unobservable inputs. A three-level valuation hierarchy is based upon the transparency of inputs to the valuation of an asset or liability on the measurement date. The three levels are defined as follows: Ÿ Level 1-inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted prices (unadjusted) for an identical asset or liability in an active market. Ÿ Level 2-inputs to the valuation methodology include quoted prices for a similar asset or liability in an active market or model-derived valuations in which all significant inputs are observable for substantially the full term of the asset or liability. Ÿ Level 3-inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair value measurement of the asset or liability. Financial instruments consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and long-term debt. The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable and accounts payable approximate their fair value because of the nature of such instruments. Our derivative financial instruments are measured at their fair value with Level 2 inputs based on quoted market values for similar but not identical financial instruments. Financial Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis Derivative Financial Instruments We have interest rate swap contracts, designated as cash flow hedges, to mitigate our exposure to possible increases in interest rates. The swap contracts consist of four individual $12.5 million swaps with an aggregate notional value of $50.0 million at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019 . The swaps have various maturities through 2023. We enter into natural gas forward contracts, designated as cash flow hedges, to mitigate volatility in the price of natural gas related to a portion of the natural gas we consume. These contracts generally have various maturities through 2024 . These contracts had an aggregate notional value of $27.6 million and $31.2 million at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019 , respectively. The following table presents the fair value of derivative assets and derivative liabilities and the respective locations on our unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets as of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019 : Assets Liabilities June 30, December 31, June 30, December 31, (In millions) Balance Sheet Location Fair Value Fair Value Balance Sheet Location Fair Value Fair Value Derivatives designated as hedges: Interest rate swap contracts - current Other current assets $ — $ — Accrued Expenses $ — $ 0.9 Natural gas forward contracts - current Other current assets 0.3 0.1 Accrued Expenses 2.5 2.4 Natural gas forward contracts - non-current Other non-current assets 0.4 0.2 Other non-current liabilities 1.8 2.9 Interest rate swap contracts - non-current — — Other non-current liabilities 1.7 — Total fair value of derivatives designated as hedging instruments $ 0.7 $ 0.3 $ 6.0 $ 6.2 Financial Assets and Liabilities not Measured at Fair Value The carrying value of our long-term debt materially reflects the fair value of our long-term debt as its key terms are similar to indebtedness with similar amounts, durations and credit risks.

The Master Agreement was also amended to incorporate, among other things, the modified covenants set forth in the Second Ciner Wyoming Amendment related to the consolidated leverage ratios of Ciner Wyoming. See Note 4 “Debt” for further details. ANSAC Early Exit On July 27, 2020, ANSAC and the members thereof entered into the ANSAC Early Exit Agreement, that, among other things, terminates Ciner Corp’s membership in ANSAC effective as of the ANSAC termination date, one year earlier than previously announced. For a limited period after December 31, 2020, Ciner Corp will continue to sell, at substantially lower volumes, of product to ANSAC for export sales purposes and will also purchase a limited amount of export logistics services to further assist with an efficient and effective transition. Suspension of Distributions In further efforts to achieve greater financial and liquidity flexibility during the COVID-19 pandemic, on July 31, 2020, in connection with making the distribution decision for the quarter ended June 30, 2020, each of the members of the board of managers of Ciner Wyoming approved a suspension of quarterly distributions to its members. On August 3, 2020, in connection with making the distribution decision for the quarter ended June 30, 2020, each of the members of the board of directors of our general partner approved a suspension of quarterly distributions to our unitholders in order to increase financial and liquidity flexibility during the COVID-19 pandemic. Management and the board of directors of our general partner will continue to evaluate, on a quarterly basis, whether it is appropriate to reinstate the distribution, which will be dependent in part on our cash reserves, liquidity, total debt levels and anticipated capital expenditures.

Accounting Policies [Abstract]
Nature of Operations	Nature of Operations The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements are composed of Ciner Resources LP (the “Partnership,” “CINR,” “Ciner Resources,” “we,” “us,” or “our”), a publicly traded Delaware limited partnership, and its consolidated subsidiary, Ciner Wyoming LLC (“Ciner Wyoming”), which is in the business of mining trona ore to produce soda ash. The Partnership’s operations consist solely of its investment in Ciner Wyoming. The Partnership was formed in April 2013 by Ciner Wyoming Holding Co. (“Ciner Holdings”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Ciner Resources Corporation (“Ciner Corp”). Ciner Corp is a direct wholly-owned subsidiary of Ciner Enterprises Inc. (“Ciner Enterprises”), which is a direct wholly-owned subsidiary of WE Soda Ltd., a U.K. corporation (“WE Soda”). WE Soda is a direct wholly-owned subsidiary of KEW Soda Ltd., a U.K. corporation (“KEW Soda”), which is a direct wholly-owned subsidiary of Akkan Enerji ve Madencilik Anonim Şirketi (“Akkan”). Akkan is directly and wholly owned by Turgay Ciner, the Chairman of the Ciner Group (“Ciner Group”), a Turkish conglomerate of companies engaged in energy and mining (including soda ash mining), media and shipping markets. The Partnership owns a controlling interest comprised of 51.0% membership interest in Ciner Wyoming. All of our soda ash processed is currently sold to various domestic and international customers, including ANSAC which is an affiliate for export sales. All mining and processing activities of Ciner Wyoming take place in one facility located in the Green River Basin of Wyoming.
Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies	Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) applicable to interim period financial statements and reflect all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring accruals, which are necessary for fair presentation of the results of operations, financial position and cash flows for the periods presented. All intercompany transactions, balances, revenue and expenses have been eliminated in consolidation. The results of operations for the six -month periods ended June 30, 2020 and 2019 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for the full year. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes to audited consolidated financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019 (the “ 2019 Annual Report”) filed with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission on March 9, 2020. There have been no other material changes in the significant accounting policies followed by us during the six months ended June 30, 2020 from those disclosed in the 2019 Annual Report.
Use of Estimates	Use of Estimates The preparation of these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, in accordance with GAAP, requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the dates of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements	Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements Recently Adopted Accounting Guidance In June 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2016-13, “Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326)” (“ASU 2016-13”). This ASU introduces the current expected credit loss (CECL) model, which will require an entity to measure credit losses for certain financial instruments and financial assets, including trade receivables. Under this update, on initial recognition and at each reporting period, an entity will be required to recognize an allowance that reflects the entity’s current estimate of credit losses expected to be incurred over the life of the financial instrument. The Partnership adopted ASU 2016-13 effective January 1, 2020 and concluded there was no material impact to the Partnership’s condensed consolidated financial statements. In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-15, “Intangibles-Goodwill and Other-Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40): Customer’s Accounting for Implementation Costs Incurred in a Cloud Computing Arrangement That Is a Service Contract (a consensus of the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force)” (“ASU 2018-15”), which amends Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 350-40 (“ASC 350-40”) to address a customer’s accounting for implementation costs incurred in a cloud computing arrangement (“CCA”) that is a service contract. ASU 2018-15 amends ASC 350 and clarifies that a customer should apply ASC 350-40 to determine which implementation costs should be capitalized in a CCA. ASU 2018-15 does not expand on existing disclosure requirements except to require a description of the nature of hosting arrangements that are service contracts. Entities are permitted to apply either a retrospective or prospective transition approach to adopt the guidance. The Partnership adopted ASU 2018-15 effective January 1, 2020 and concluded there was no material impact to the Partnership’s condensed consolidated financial statements.

Under our partnership agreement, our general partner has considerable discretion to determine the amount of available cash (as defined therein) for distribution each quarter to the Partnership’s unitholders, including the discretion to establish cash reserves that would limit the amount of available cash eligible for distribution to the Partnership’s unitholders for any quarter. The Partnership does not guarantee that it will pay the target amount of the minimum quarterly distribution listed below (or any distributions) on its units in any quarter. The percentage interests set forth below for our general partner (1) include its 2.0% general partner interest, (2) assume that our general partner has contributed any additional capital necessary to maintain its 2.0% general partner interest, (3) assume that our general partner has not transferred its IDRs and (4) assume that we do not issue additional classes of equity securities.
