Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract] | |
Business and Basis of Presentation | Business and Basis of Presentation Basis of Presentation Together, the condensed consolidated statements of operations, comprehensive loss, balance sheets, cash flows and stockholders’ equity for the Company are referred to as the “Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.” The Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements are also referenced across periods as “Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations,” “Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Loss,” “Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets,” “Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows,” and “Condensed Consolidated Statements of Stockholders’ Equity.” The Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements include all wholly-owned subsidiaries’ results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019. All significant intercompany transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The accompanying interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements are unaudited and have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”) and in accordance with the rules and regulations of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) for Form 10-Q. Such rules and regulations allow the omission of certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in the financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP as long as the financial statements are not misleading. In the opinion of management, these interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements reflect all normal and recurring adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the periods presented. Results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the year ending December 31, 2020 or any other period. These interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements and related notes included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019. Liquidity Risks and Uncertainties Weak market conditions and depressed coal prices have resulted in operating losses. If market conditions do not improve, the Company may experience continued operating losses and cash outflows in the coming quarters, which would adversely affect its liquidity. The Company may need to raise additional funds more quickly if market conditions deteriorate, and may not be able to do so in a timely fashion, or at all. The Company believes it will have sufficient liquidity to meet its working capital requirements, anticipated capital expenditures, debt service requirements, acquisition-related obligations, and reclamation obligations for the 12 months subsequent to the issuance of these financial statements. The Company relies on a number of assumptions in budgeting for future activities. These include the costs for mine development to sustain capacity of its operating mines, cash flows from operations, effects of regulation and taxes by governmental agencies, mining technology improvements and reclamation costs. These assumptions are inherently subject to significant business, political, economic, regulatory, environmental and competitive uncertainties, contingencies and risks, all of which are difficult to predict and many of which are beyond the Company’s control. Therefore, the cash on hand and from future operations will be subject to any significant changes in these assumptions. COVID-19 Pandemic In the first quarter of 2020, the COVID-19 virus was declared a pandemic by the World Health Organization. The COVID-19 pandemic has had negative impacts on the Company’s business, results of operations, financial condition and cash flows. A continued period of reduced demand for the Company’s products could have significant adverse consequences. The full extent of the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the Company’s operational and financial performance will depend on certain developments, including the duration and spread of the outbreak, its impact on its customers and suppliers and the range of governmental and community reactions to the pandemic, which are still uncertain and cannot be fully predicted at this time. In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, on March 27, 2020, the “Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act” (“CARES Act”) was enacted into law. As a result, the Company expects accelerated refunds of previously generated alternative minimum tax (“AMT”) credits from the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) as further described in Note 15 and expects to defer 2020 employer payroll taxes incurred after the date of enactment to future years. As further described in Note 11, on March 20, 2020, the Company borrowed funds under a senior secured asset-based revolving credit facility. The funds were borrowed to augment the Company’s short-term operational flexibility in the face of uncertainty created by the current spread of the COVID-19 virus and its potential effects. On April 3, 2020, the Company announced temporary operational changes in response to market conditions, existing coal inventory levels, and customer deferrals due to concern around the global economic impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. Beginning April 3, 2020, the majority of the Company’s operations were idled for a period of approximately 30 days, with some sites idling for shorter periods of time and a few continuing to operate at a near-normal rate of production. Location-specific schedules were implemented based on existing customer agreements, current inventory levels, and anticipated customer demand. Certain preparation plants, docks, and loadouts continued to operate to support business needs and customer shipments. As of May 4, 2020, all Company sites were back to nearly normal staffing levels and operating capacity with additional precautions in place to help reduce the risk of exposure to COVID-19. Refer to Note 8 for discussion of certain strategic actions announced during the second quarter of 2020 with respect to two thermal coal mining complexes in an effort to strengthen the Company’s financial performance. The Company will continue to evaluate market conditions amid the continuing uncertainty of the COVID-19 pandemic and expects to adjust its operations accordingly.

Discontinued Operations and Disposal Groups [Abstract] | |
Discontinued Operations | Discontinued Operations Discontinued operations in the prior period consisted of activity related to the transactions with Blackjewel and ESM stemming from the sale of assets in the Company’s former PRB operations. On May 29, 2020, Contura Coal West, LLC and Contura Wyoming Land, LLC merged with certain subsidiaries of ESM and survived as wholly-owned subsidiaries of ESM. Contura Coal West, LLC holds, and will continue to hold, the mining permits for the Western Mines, which have been under the operational control of ESM since October 2019 pursuant to the ESM Transaction. Pursuant to terms of the transaction, the Company received from ESM approximately $625 in consideration for assets owned by Contura Coal West, LLC but not previously conveyed. There were no discontinued operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020 and as of September 30, 2020. The major components of net loss from discontinued operations in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019 are as follows: Three Months Ended September 30, 2019 Nine Months Ended September 30, 2019 Revenues: Total revenues (1) $ 4 $ 152 Costs and expenses: Depreciation, depletion and amortization (2) $ — $ 145,913 Accretion on asset retirement obligations (3) $ 4,981 $ 4,981 Asset impairment (4) $ 694 $ 17,162 Selling, general and administrative expenses $ 4,666 $ 4,673 Other expenses $ 1,032 $ 3,964 Other non-major expense (income) items, net $ 147 $ 432 (1) Total revenues for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019 consisted entirely of other revenues. (2) The depreciation, depletion and amortization is related to an increase in the Company’s estimate of its asset retirement obligations with respect to the Western Mines as a result of the Blackjewel Chapter 11 bankruptcy filing on July 1, 2019. The Company remeasured its asset retirement obligations based on the expectation that the mining permits would not transfer to Blackjewel and Blackjewel would be unable to perform its contractual obligation to reclaim the properties. The increase in the asset retirement obligation was recorded to expense as the Company no longer owned the underlying mining assets. (3) The accretion on asset retirement obligations is related to the asset retirement obligation as a result of the Blackjewel bankruptcy filing. (4) The asset impairment is primarily related to the write-off of a tax receivable. The Company was considered to be the primary obligor for certain taxes that Blackjewel was contractually obligated to pay. During the nine months ended September 30, 2019, the Company recorded an impairment charge for the offsetting receivable from Blackjewel as a result of the Blackjewel bankruptcy filing. Refer to the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations for net loss per share information related to discontinued operations. There were no major components of asset and liabilities that are classified as discontinued operations in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as of December 31, 2019. The major components of cash flows related to discontinued operations are as follows: Three Months Ended September 30, 2019 Nine Months Ended September 30, 2019 Other significant operating non-cash items related to discontinued operations: Depreciation, depletion and amortization $ — $ 145,913 Accretion on asset retirement obligations $ 4,981 $ 4,981 Asset impairment $ 694 $ 17,162 |

Earnings Per Share [Abstract] | |
Net (Loss) Income Per Common Share | Net (Loss) Income Per Common Share The number of shares used to calculate basic net (loss) income per common share is based on the weighted average number of the Company’s outstanding common shares during the respective period. The number of shares used to calculate diluted net income per common share is based on the number of common shares used to calculate basic net income per common share plus the dilutive effect of stock options and other stock-based instruments held by the Company’s employees and directors during the period, and the Company’s outstanding Series A warrants. The diluted effect of outstanding stock-based instruments is determined by application of the treasury stock method. The warrants become dilutive for diluted net income per common share calculations when the market price of the Company’s common stock exceeds the exercise price. Dilutive securities are not included in the computation of diluted net loss per common share as the impact would be anti-dilutive. Refer to the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations for net loss per common share for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019. For the three months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, 1,243,866 and 1,136,318 warrants, stock options, and other stock-based instruments, respectively, were excluded from the computation of dilutive net loss per common share because they would have been anti-dilutive.

Goodwill and Intangible Assets Disclosure [Abstract] | |
Acquired Intangibles | Acquired Intangibles The Company has recognized assets for acquired above market-priced coal supply agreements and acquired mine permits and liabilities for acquired below market-priced coal supply agreements. The coal supply agreements were valued based on the present value of the difference between the expected net contractual cash flows based on the stated contract terms, and the estimated net contractual cash flows derived from applying forward market prices at the Merger or acquisition date for new contracts of similar terms and conditions. The acquired mine permits were valued based on the replacement cost and lost profits method as of the Merger date. The balances and respective balance sheet classifications of such assets and liabilities as of September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, net of accumulated amortization, are set forth in the following tables: September 30, 2020 Assets (1) Liabilities (2) Net Total Coal supply agreements, net $ 185 $ (875) $ (690) Acquired mine permits, net 100,165 — 100,165 Total $ 100,350 $ (875) $ 99,475 December 31, 2019 Assets (1) Liabilities (2) Net Total Coal supply agreements, net $ 917 $ (6,018) $ (5,101) Acquired mine permits, net 124,228 — 124,228 Total $ 125,145 $ (6,018) $ 119,127 (1) Included within other acquired intangibles, net of accumulated amortization on the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. (2) Included within other non-current liabilities on the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, the Company recorded a long-lived asset impairment which reduced the carrying value of acquired mine permits, net, by $8,653 and $14,471. Refer to Note 8. The acquired mine permits are amortized over the estimated life of the associated mine. The coal supply agreement assets and liabilities are amortized over the actual number of tons shipped over the life of each contract. The following table details the amortization of mine permits acquired as a result of the Merger and the amortization of above-market and below-market coal supply agreements: Three Months Ended September 30, Nine Months Ended September 30, 2020 2019 2020 2019 Amortization of mine permits (1) $ 2,944 $ 6,266 $ 9,592 $ 17,871 Amortization of above-market coal supply agreements $ 145 $ 1,473 $ 732 $ 2,351 Amortization of below-market coal supply agreements (870) (5,425) (5,144) (24,934) Net income (1) $ (725) $ (3,952) $ (4,412) $ (22,583) (1) Included within amortization of acquired intangibles, net in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. |

Restructuring and Related Activities [Abstract] | |
Asset Impairment and Restructuring | Asset Impairment and Restructuring Strategic Actions During the second quarter of 2020, as a result of the weakening coal market conditions due in part to the impact of the global COVID-19 pandemic, the Company announced that it would take certain strategic actions with respect to two of its thermal coal mining complexes in an effort to strengthen its financial performance and improve forecasted liquidity. The Company announced that an underground mine and preparation plant located in West Virginia would be idled during the third quarter of 2020. In addition, the Company decided not to move forward with the construction of a new refuse impoundment at its Cumberland mine in Pennsylvania and would therefore no longer spend the significant capital required in connection with the project. As a result, the Cumberland mine is expected to cease production at the end of 2022, and in the meantime, the Company plans to actively market the Cumberland property for sale. During the third quarter of 2020, the Company entered into a collective bargaining agreement with the UMWA representing Cumberland mine employees replacing the prior expired collective bargaining agreement. Long-lived Asset Impairment During the three months ended March 31, 2020, due to declines in metallurgical and thermal coal pricing which reduced forecasted margins at certain locations to amounts below those required for full recoverability, the Company determined that indicators of impairment were present for four long-lived asset groups within its CAPP - Met reporting segment and three long-lived asset groups within its CAPP - Thermal reporting segment and performed impairment testing as of February 29, 2020. At February 29, 2020, the Company determined that the carrying amounts of the asset groups exceeded both their undiscounted cash flows and their estimated fair values. The Company estimated the fair value of these asset groups generally using a discounted cash flow analysis utilizing market-participant assumptions. As a result, after allocating the potential impairment to individual assets, the Company recorded a long-lived asset impairment of $33,709, of which $32,951 was recorded within CAPP - Met and $758 was recorded within CAPP - Thermal. The long-lived asset impairment reduced the carrying values of mineral rights by $21,825, property, plant, and equipment, net, by $6,066, and acquired mine permits, net, by $5,818. In connection with the preparation of the Company’s financial statements for the quarter ended June 30, 2020, the Company determined that the strategic actions taken by the Company during the three months ended June 30, 2020, discussed above, shortened the lives of two mining complexes, and that continued weakening in metallurgical and thermal coal pricing had resulted in forecasted margins at certain locations falling below amounts necessary for full recoverability. As a result of these determinations, the Company assessed that indicators of impairment were present for three long-lived asset groups within its CAPP - Met reporting segment and four long-lived asset groups within its CAPP - Thermal reporting segment. The Company therefore performed impairment testing on these assets and determined that, as of May 31, 2020, the carrying amounts of the asset groups exceeded both their undiscounted cash flows and their estimated fair values. The Company estimated the fair value of these asset groups generally using a discounted cash flow analysis utilizing market-participant assumptions. As a result, after allocating the potential impairment to individual assets, the Company recorded a long-lived asset impairment of $161,738, of which $144,348 was recorded within NAPP, $17,385 was recorded within CAPP - Thermal, and $5 recorded in All Other. No long-lived asset impairment was recorded within the CAPP - Met reporting segment as each of the three long-lived asset groups had previously been impaired. The long-lived asset impairment reduced the carrying values of mineral rights by $18,605, property, plant, and equipment, net, by $134,480, and acquired mine permits, net, by $8,653. In connection with the preparation of the Company’s financial statements for the quarter ended September 30, 2020, the Company determined forecasted margins at certain locations continued to fall below amounts necessary for full recoverability and therefore indicators of impairment were present for three long-lived asset groups within its CAPP - Met reporting segment and four long-lived asset groups within its CAPP - Thermal reporting segment. The Company therefore performed impairment testing on these assets and determined that, as of August 31, 2020, the carrying amounts of the asset groups exceeded both their undiscounted cash flows and their estimated fair values. The Company estimated the fair value of these asset groups generally using a discounted cash flow analysis utilizing market-participant assumptions. As a result, after allocating the potential impairment to individual assets, the Company recorded a long-lived asset impairment of $3,516, of which $3,297 was recorded within NAPP and $219 was recorded within CAPP - Thermal to reduce the carrying value of property, plant, and equipment, net, due to capital spending during the quarter at previously impaired locations requiring the impairment of certain additional assets not considered recoverable. No long-lived asset impairment was recorded within the CAPP - Met reporting segment as each of the three long-lived asset groups had previously been impaired. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019, the Company recorded an asset impairment of $32 and $5,858, respectively, primarily related to the write-off of prepaid purchased coal from Blackjewel as a result of Blackjewel’s Chapter 11 bankruptcy filing on July 1, 2019. Restructuring As a result of the strategic actions discussed above, the Company recorded restructuring expense during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020 as follows: Three Months Ended September 30, 2020 Nine Months Ended September 30, 2020 Affected line item in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets Severance and employee-related benefits (1) $ 55 $ 20,608 Accrued expenses and other current liabilities and Other non-current liabilities Other costs (2) — 1,882 Inventories, net and Other non-current assets Total restructuring expense (3) $ 55 $ 22,490 (1) Severance and employee-related benefits were considered probable and estimable based on provisions of contractual agreements and existing employee benefit plans. (2) The nine months ended September 30, 2020 includes accelerated amortization of deferred longwall move expenses of $668, allowance for advanced mining royalties of $407, and allowance for obsolete materials and supplies inventory of $807. (3) During the three months ended September 30, 2020, total restructuring expenses of ($484), $89, and $450 were recorded within the reportable segments CAPP - Thermal, NAPP and All Other, respectively. During the nine months ended September 30, 2020, total restructuring expenses of $1,826, $18,221, and $2,443 were recorded within the reportable segments CAPP - Thermal, NAPP and All Other, respectively. There were no restructuring expenses recorded during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019. |

Leases [Abstract] | |
Leases | LeasesSubsequent to the adoption of ASC 842, Leases, the Company recognizes right of use assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet for all leases with a term longer than 12 months. The discount rates used to determine the present value of the lease assets and liabilities are based on the Company’s incremental borrowing rate at the lease commencement date and commensurate with the remaining lease term. As the rates implicit in most of the Company’s leases are not readily determinable, the Company uses a collateralized incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at the lease commencement date in determining the present value of future payments. The Company uses the portfolio approach and groups leases by short-term and long-term categories, applying the corresponding incremental borrowing rates to these categories of leases. For leases with a term of 12 months or less, no right of use assets or liabilities are recognized on the balance sheet and the Company recognizes the lease expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Additionally, the Company recognizes variable lease payments as an expense in the period incurred. The Company’s lease population consists primarily of vehicle and heavy equipment leases and leases for office equipment. The Company’s building and land leases relate to corporate office space and certain site offices. The Company determines whether a contract contains a lease based on whether the Company obtains the right to control the use of specifically identifiable property, plant, and equipment for a period of time in exchange for consideration. For the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, the Company identified no instances requiring significant judgment in determining whether any contracts entered into during the period were or were not leases. Additionally, the Company had no material sublease agreements within the scope of ASC 842 or lease agreements for which the Company was the lessor for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019. Renewal options in the Company’s lease population primarily relate to month-to-month extensions on vehicle leases and are immaterial both individually and in the aggregate. The Company includes renewal options that are reasonably certain to be exercised in the measurement of lease liabilities. As of September 30, 2020, the Company does not intend to exercise any termination options on existing leases.

Leases | LeasesSubsequent to the adoption of ASC 842, Leases, the Company recognizes right of use assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet for all leases with a term longer than 12 months. The discount rates used to determine the present value of the lease assets and liabilities are based on the Company’s incremental borrowing rate at the lease commencement date and commensurate with the remaining lease term. As the rates implicit in most of the Company’s leases are not readily determinable, the Company uses a collateralized incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at the lease commencement date in determining the present value of future payments. The Company uses the portfolio approach and groups leases by short-term and long-term categories, applying the corresponding incremental borrowing rates to these categories of leases. For leases with a term of 12 months or less, no right of use assets or liabilities are recognized on the balance sheet and the Company recognizes the lease expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Additionally, the Company recognizes variable lease payments as an expense in the period incurred. The Company’s lease population consists primarily of vehicle and heavy equipment leases and leases for office equipment. The Company’s building and land leases relate to corporate office space and certain site offices. The Company determines whether a contract contains a lease based on whether the Company obtains the right to control the use of specifically identifiable property, plant, and equipment for a period of time in exchange for consideration. For the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, the Company identified no instances requiring significant judgment in determining whether any contracts entered into during the period were or were not leases. Additionally, the Company had no material sublease agreements within the scope of ASC 842 or lease agreements for which the Company was the lessor for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019. Renewal options in the Company’s lease population primarily relate to month-to-month extensions on vehicle leases and are immaterial both individually and in the aggregate. The Company includes renewal options that are reasonably certain to be exercised in the measurement of lease liabilities. As of September 30, 2020, the Company does not intend to exercise any termination options on existing leases. As of September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the Company had the following right-of-use assets and lease liabilities within the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets: September 30, 2020 December 31, 2019 Assets Balance Sheet Classification Financing lease assets Property, plant, and equipment, net $ 5,921 $ 9,718 Operating lease right-of-use assets Other non-current assets 6,481 8,678 Total lease assets $ 12,402 $ 18,396 Liabilities Balance Sheet Classification Financing lease liabilities - current Current portion of long-term debt $ 3,222 $ 3,275 Operating lease liabilities - current Accrued expenses and other current liabilities 949 1,813 Financing lease liabilities - long-term Long-term debt 2,552 4,674 Operating lease liabilities - long-term Other non-current liabilities 5,532 6,866 Total lease liabilities $ 12,255 $ 16,628 Total lease costs and other lease information for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019 included the following: Three Months Ended September 30, Nine Months Ended September 30, 2020 2019 2020 2019 Lease cost (1) Finance lease cost: Amortization of leased assets $ 805 $ 1,143 $ 2,546 $ 2,796 Interest on lease liabilities 81 108 277 366 Operating lease cost 509 732 1,603 2,062 Short-term lease cost 380 494 1,255 1,474 Total lease cost $ 1,775 $ 2,477 $ 5,681 $ 6,698 (1) The Company had no variable lease costs or sublease income for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019.

Term Loan Credit Facility - due June 2024 On June 14, 2019, the Company entered into a Credit Agreement with Cantor Fitzgerald Securities, as administrative agent and collateral agent, and the other lenders party thereto (as defined therein) that provides for a senior secured term loan facility in the aggregate principal amount of $561,800 with a maturity date of June 14, 2024 (the “Term Loan Credit Facility”). Principal repayments equal to approximately $1,405 are due each March, June, September and December (commencing with September 30, 2019) with the final principal repayment installment repaid on the maturity date and in an amount equal to the aggregate principal amount outstanding on such date. The Term Loan Credit Facility bears an interest rate per annum based on the character of the loan (defined as either “Base Rate Loan” or “Eurocurrency Rate Loan”). Each loan type bears interest at a rate per annum comprised of a base rate (as defined) plus an applicable percentage (6.00% for Base Rate Loans and 7.00% for Eurocurrency Rate Loans on or prior to the second anniversary of the Closing Date and 7.00% or 8.00% thereafter (the “Applicable Rate”)). The Eurocurrency base rate is subject to a 2.00% floor. Interest accrued on each Base Rate Loan is payable in arrears on the last business day of each March, June, September and December and the maturity date. Interest accrued on each Eurocurrency Rate Loan is payable in arrears on the last day of each interest period as defined therein. As of September 30, 2020, the borrowings made under the Term Loan Credit Facility were comprised of Eurocurrency Rate Loans with an interest rate of 9.00%, calculated as the Eurocurrency rate during the period plus an applicable rate of 7.00%. As of September 30, 2020, the carrying value of the Term Loan Credit Facility was $540,095, with $5,618 classified as current, within the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. As of December 31, 2019, the carrying value of the term loan credit facility was $538,765, with $5,618 classified as current, within the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The Company used the proceeds from the Term Loan Credit Facility to repay the outstanding principal balance of $543,125 under the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement dated November 9, 2018 and fees related to such refinancing. The Company recorded a loss on modification of debt of $255, primarily related to modification fees paid under the refinance, and a loss on extinguishment of debt of $26,204, primarily related to the write-off of outstanding debt discounts and unamortized debt issuance costs under the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement dated November 9, 2018, which are recorded in loss on modification and extinguishment of debt within the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2019. All obligations under the Term Loan Credit Facility are substantially guaranteed by the Company’s existing wholly owned domestic subsidiaries, and are required to be guaranteed by the Company’s future wholly owned domestic subsidiaries. Certain obligations under the Term Loan Facility are secured by a senior lien, subject to certain exceptions (including the ABL Priority Collateral described below), by substantially all of the Company’s assets and the assets of the Company’s subsidiary guarantors (“Term Loan Priority Collateral”), in each case subject to exceptions. The obligations under the Term Loan Credit Facility are also secured by a junior lien, again subject to certain exceptions, against the ABL Priority Collateral. The Term Loan Facility contains negative and affirmative covenants including certain financial covenants that are more flexible than the covenants on the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement dated November 9, 2018. The Company was in compliance with all covenants under this agreement as of September 30, 2020.

Pursuant to terms of the Amended and Restated Asset-Based Revolving Credit Agreement at each notice period, the Company elects the character of the loan, the interest period, and may provide notice of continuation or conversion of the borrowed principal amount with the ability to repay the borrowed principal amount in advance of the maturity date without penalty. On March 20, 2020, the Company borrowed $57,500 principal amount under the ABL Facility.

Trading Securities - Includes money market funds and other cash equivalents. The fair value is based on observable market data. Level 2 Fair Value Measurements Term Loan Credit Facility - due June 2024 - As of September 30, 2020, the fair value is based on the average between bid and ask prices provided by a third-party. As the fair value is based on observable market inputs, the Company has classified the fair value within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. Due to limited trading volume in the Term Loan Credit Facility, the Company reclassified the fair value from Level 1 within the fair value hierarchy during the three months ending September 30, 2020. Trading Securities - Includes certificates of deposit, mutual funds, corporate debt securities and U.S. treasury and agency securities. The fair values of the Company’s trading securities are obtained from a third-party pricing service provider. The fair values provided by the pricing service provider are based on observable market inputs including credit spreads and broker-dealer quotes, among other inputs. The Company classifies the prices obtained from the pricing services within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy because the underlying inputs are directly observable from active markets. However, the pricing models used entail a certain amount of subjectivity and therefore differing judgments in how the underlying inputs are modeled could result in different estimates of fair value. Level 3 Fair Value Measurements ABL Facility - due April 2022 - Observable transactions are not available to aid in determining the fair value of this item. Therefore, the fair value was derived by using the expected present value approach in which estimated cash flows are discounted using a risk-free interest rate adjusted for credit risk (discount rate of approximately 10%) as of September 30, 2020. LCC Note Payable, LCC Water Treatment Obligation, UMWA Funds Settlement Liability, Environmental Settlement Obligations and Reclamation Funding Liability - Observable transactions are not available to aid in determining the fair value of these items. Therefore, the fair value was derived by using the expected present value approach in which estimated cash flows are discounted using a risk-free interest rate adjusted for credit risk (discount rates of approximately 35% and 21% as of September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively). Contingent Revenue Obligation - The fair value of the contingent revenue obligation was estimated using a Black-Scholes pricing model and is marked to market at each reporting period with changes in value reflected in earnings. The inputs included in the Black-Scholes pricing model are the Company's forecasted future revenue, the stated royalty rate, the remaining periods in the obligation; annual risk-free interest rate based on the U.S. Constant Maturity Treasury Curve and annualized volatility. The annualized volatility was calculated by observing volatilities for comparable companies with adjustments for the Company's size and leverage. The range of significant unobservable inputs used to value the contingent revenue obligation as of September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, are set forth in the following table: September 30, 2020 December 31, 2019 Forecasted future revenue $0.8 - $0.9 billion $1.1 - $1.2 billion Stated royalty rate 1.0% - 1.5% 1.0% - 1.5% Annualized volatility 10.6% - 32.1% (26.8%) 9.4% - 28.1% (19.9%) |

Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract] | |
Income Taxes | Income TaxesFor the nine months ended September 30, 2020, the Company recorded income tax benefit of $2,200 on a loss from continuing operations before income taxes of $348,946. The income tax benefit differs from the expected statutory amount primarily due to the increase in the valuation allowance, partially offset by the permanent impact of percentage depletion deductions, the impact of state income taxes, net of federal tax impact, and the recording of a discrete tax benefit related to the refundability of previously sequestered AMT Credits. The discrete income tax benefit of the previously sequestered AMT Credits is $2,123 and was recorded during the three months ended March 31, 2020. As of September 30, 2020, the Company anticipates that no current federal income tax liability will be generated in 2020. For the nine months ended September 30, 2019, the Company recorded income tax benefit of $8,880 on a loss from continuing operations before income taxes of $20,151. The income tax benefit differs from the expected statutory amount primarily due to the permanent impact of percentage depletion and stock-based compensation deductions, partially offset by an increase in the valuation allowance. During the nine months ended September 30, 2020, the Company recorded an increase of $92,804 to its deferred tax asset valuation allowance. The increase in the valuation allowance results from an increase in deferred tax assets for which the Company is unable to support realization. The Company currently is relying primarily on the reversal of taxable temporary differences, along with consideration of taxable income via carryback to prior years and tax planning strategies, to support the realization of deferred tax assets. For each reporting period, the Company updates its assessment regarding the realizability of its deferred tax assets, including scheduling the reversal of its deferred tax assets and liabilities, to determine the amount of valuation allowance needed. Scheduling the reversal of deferred tax asset and liability balances requires judgment and estimation. The Company believes the deferred tax liabilities relied upon as future taxable income in its assessment will reverse in the same period and jurisdiction and are of the same character as the temporary differences giving rise to the deferred tax assets that will be realized. The valuation allowance recorded represents the portion of deferred tax assets for which the Company is unable to support realization through the methods described above. On March 27, 2020, the CARES Act was enacted into law. As a result of the CARES Act, the Company expects that AMT Credits of $68,252 will be fully refunded during the year ended December 31, 2020. As of September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the Company classified the current portion of AMT Credit refunds receivable of $66,129 and $33,065, respectively, within prepaid expenses and other current assets on the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. During the three months ended September 30, 2020, the Company recorded a decrease in unrecognized tax benefits of approximately $23,800, as a result of the issuance of final regulatory guidance from the IRS. The decrease in unrecognized tax benefits did not result in an amount of cash paid for income taxes and did not impact the Company’s effective tax rate for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020. The IRS initiated a corporate income tax audit during the third quarter of 2020 for the Company’s 2016 tax year and related net operating loss carryback. |

Compensation Related Costs [Abstract] | |
Employee Benefit Plans | Employee Benefit Plans The Company provides several types of benefits for its employees, including defined benefit and defined contribution pension plans, workers’ compensation and black lung benefits, and postemployment life insurance. The Company does not participate in any multiemployer plans. The components of net periodic (benefit) expense other than the service cost component for pension, black lung, and life insurance benefits are included in the line item miscellaneous loss, net in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. Pension Effective as of the September 30, 2019 adjusted funding target attainment percentage certification date under Section 436 of the Internal Revenue Code, certain lump sum benefit restrictions were lifted for one of the qualified non-contributory defined benefit pension plans, allowing certain eligible participants the option to elect to receive lump sum benefits which resulted in a partial plan settlement and the accelerated recognition of a portion of the accumulated other comprehensive loss during the nine months ended September 30, 2020. Refer to the table below for further information on the partial plan settlement. The following table details the components of the net periodic benefit for pension obligations: Three Months Ended September 30, Nine Months Ended September 30, 2020 2019 2020 2019 Interest cost $ 4,670 $ 6,636 $ 14,061 $ 19,929 Expected return on plan assets (6,752) (7,011) (20,312) (21,032) Amortization of net actuarial loss 511 199 1,501 597 Settlement — — 1,230 — Net periodic benefit $ (1,571) $ (176) $ (3,520) $ (506) Assets of the three qualified non-contributory defined pension plans (“Pension Plans”) are held in trusts and are invested in accordance with investment guidelines that have been established by the Company’s Benefits Committee in consultation with outside investment advisors. In September 2020, the target allocation was adjusted by the Company’s Benefits Committee to transition to 60.0% equity securities and 40.0% fixed income funds in approximate 2.0% increments over a 10 month period. The asset allocation targets have been set with the expectation that the Pension Plans’ assets will fund the expected liabilities within an appropriate level of risk. In determining the appropriate target asset allocations, the Benefits Committee considers the demographics of the Pension Plans’ participants, the funding status of each plan, the Company’s contribution philosophy, the Company’s business and financial profile, and other associated risk factors. Black Lung The following table details the components of the net periodic expense for black lung obligations: Three Months Ended September 30, Nine Months Ended September 30, 2020 2019 2020 2019 Service cost $ 598 $ 751 $ 1,762 $ 1,558 Interest cost 747 1,567 2,493 3,386 Expected return on plan assets (14) (17) (40) (49) Amortization of net actuarial loss 596 72 1,346 162 Net periodic expense $ 1,927 $ 2,373 $ 5,561 $ 5,057 As a result of the strategic actions impacting certain mines during the three months ended June 30, 2020 (refer to Note 8), black lung obligations were revalued for curtailment and remeasured with an updated discount rate as of May 31, 2020, which resulted in an increase in the liability for black lung obligations of approximately $7,400 with the offset to accumulated other comprehensive loss and a slight increase in net periodic expense to be recognized subsequent to the remeasurement date. Life Insurance Benefits The following table details the components of the net periodic expense for life insurance benefit obligations: Three Months Ended September 30, Nine Months Ended September 30, 2020 2019 2020 2019 Interest cost $ 84 $ 106 $ 253 $ 318 Amortization of net actuarial gain (12) (26) (36) (78) Net periodic expense $ 72 $ 80 $ 217 $ 240 Defined Contribution and Profit Sharing Plans The Company sponsors defined contribution plans to assist its eligible employees in providing for retirement. Generally, under the terms of these plans, employees make voluntary contributions through payroll deductions and the Company makes matching and/or discretionary contributions, as defined by each plan. The Company’s total contributions to these plans for the three months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019 was $628 and $4,158, respectively. The Company’s total contributions to these plans for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019 was $6,520 and $23,461, respectively. During the second quarter of 2020, the Company’s matching contributions under the Contura Energy 401(k) Retirement Savings Plan were suspended due to current market conditions.

Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract] | |
Commitments and Contingencies | Commitments and Contingencies (a) General Estimated losses from loss contingencies are accrued by a charge to income when information available indicates that it is probable that an asset has been impaired or a liability has been incurred and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated. If a loss contingency is not probable or reasonably estimable, disclosure of the loss contingency is made in the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements when it is at least reasonably possible that a loss may be incurred and that the loss could be material. (b) Commitments and Contingencies Commitments The Company leases coal mining and other equipment under long-term financing and operating leases with varying terms. Refer to Note 9 for further information on leases. In addition, the Company leases mineral interests and surface rights from land owners under various terms and royalty rates. Coal royalty expense was $16,176 and $21,868 for the three months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively. Coal royalty expense was $52,092 and $73,119 for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively. Minimum royalty obligations under coal leases total $1,784, $15,974, $14,081, $13,064, $11,110, and $46,724 for the remainder of 2020, 2021, 2022, 2023, 2024, and after 2024, respectively. Other Commitments The Company has obligations under certain coal purchase agreements that contain minimum quantities to be purchased in the remainder of 2020 totaling an estimated $15,670. The Company has obligations under certain coal transportation agreements that contain minimum quantities to be shipped in 2021 totaling $8,793. The Company also has obligations under certain equipment purchase agreements that contain minimum quantities to be purchased in the remainder of 2020, 2021, and 2024 totaling $9,931, $8,968, and $1,157, respectively. Contingencies Extensive regulation of the impacts of mining on the environment and of maintaining workplace safety has had, and is expected to continue to have, a significant effect on the Company’s costs of production and results of operations. Further regulations, legislation or litigation in these areas may also cause the Company’s sales or profitability to decline by increasing costs or by hindering the Company’s ability to continue mining at existing operations or to permit new operations. During the normal course of business, contract-related matters arise between the Company and its customers. When a loss related to such matters is considered probable and can reasonably be estimated, the Company records a liability. Future Federal Income Tax Refunds As of September 30, 2020, the Company has recorded $66,129 of federal income tax receivable related to AMT Credits. In addition, the Company has recorded a non-current federal income tax receivable of $64,160 and associated interest receivable of $5,126 related to an NOL carryback claim. Because the federal government was a creditor in the Alpha Natural Resources, Inc. (“Predecessor Alpha”) bankruptcy proceedings, it is possible that the federal government could withhold some or all of the tax refund attributable to the NOL carryback claim and the refundable AMT Credits and assert a right to set off the tax refund, refundable credits, and associated interest receivable against its prepetition bankruptcy claims. (c) Guarantees and Financial Instruments with Off-Balance Sheet Risk In the normal course of business, the Company is a party to certain guarantees and financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk, such as bank letters of credit, performance or surety bonds, and other guarantees and indemnities related to the obligations of affiliated entities which are not reflected in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. However, the underlying liabilities that they secure, such as asset retirement obligations, workers’ compensation liabilities, and royalty obligations, are reflected in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The Company is required to provide financial assurance in order to perform the post-mining reclamation required by its mining permits, pay workers’ compensation claims under workers’ compensation laws in various states, pay federal black lung benefits, and perform certain other obligations. In order to provide the required financial assurance, the Company generally uses surety bonds for post-mining reclamation and workers’ compensation obligations. The Company can also use bank letters of credit to collateralize certain obligations. As of September 30, 2020, the Company had outstanding surety bonds with a total face amount of $349,772 to secure various obligations and commitments. To secure the Company’s reclamation-related obligations, the Company currently has $113,470 of collateral supporting these obligations. The Company meets frequently with its surety providers and has discussions with certain providers regarding the extent of and the terms of their participation in the program. These discussions may cause the Company to shift surety bonds between providers or to alter the terms of their participation in our program. To the extent that surety bonds become unavailable or the Company’s surety bond providers require additional collateral, the Company would seek to secure its obligations with letters of credit, cash deposits or other suitable forms of collateral. The Company’s failure to maintain, or inability to acquire, surety bonds or to provide a suitable alternative would have a material adverse effect on its liquidity. These failures could result from a variety of factors including lack of availability, higher cost or unfavorable market terms of new surety bonds, and the exercise by third-party surety bond issuers of their right to refuse to renew the surety. Amounts included in restricted cash represent cash deposits primarily invested in interest bearing accounts that are restricted as to withdrawal as required by certain agreements entered into by the Company and provide collateral for securing the following obligations which have been written on the Company’s behalf: September 30, 2020 December 31, 2019 Workers' compensation $ 39,141 $ 38,944 Black lung 12,770 12,706 Reclamation-related obligations 69,148 67,868 Financial guarantees and other 3,006 3,006 Contingent revenue obligation escrow 7,104 12,363 Total restricted cash 131,169 134,887 Less current portion (1) (7,104) (12,363) Restricted cash, net of current portion $ 124,065 $ 122,524 (1) Included within prepaid expenses and other current assets on the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. Amounts included in restricted investments consist of certificates of deposit, mutual funds, and U.S. treasury bills that are restricted as to withdrawal as required by certain agreements entered into by the Company and provide collateral for securing the following obligations which have been written on the Company’s behalf: September 30, 2020 December 31, 2019 Workers' compensation $ 3,131 $ 3,100 Reclamation-related obligations 24,662 18,786 Total restricted investments (1), (2) $ 27,793 $ 21,886 (1) Included within other non-current assets on the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. (2) As of September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively, $26,015 and $13,508 are classified as trading securities and $1,778 and $8,378 are classified as held-to-maturity securities. Deposits represent cash deposits held at third parties as required by certain agreements entered into by the Company to provide cash collateral to secure the following obligations which have been written on the Company’s behalf: September 30, 2020 December 31, 2019 Reclamation-related obligations $ 19,660 $ 8,887 Other operating agreements 1,419 1,836 Total deposits (1) $ 21,079 $ 10,723 (1) Included within prepaid expenses and other current assets and other non-current assets on the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. Letters of Credit As of September 30, 2020, the Company had $122,366 letters of credit outstanding under the Amended and Restated Asset-Based Revolving Credit Agreement. Additionally, as of September 30, 2020, the Company had $14,242 letters of credit outstanding under the Amended and Restated Letter of Credit Agreement dated November 9, 2018 between ANR, Inc. and Citibank, N.A. and $613 letters of credit outstanding under the Credit and Security Agreement dated June 30, 2017, and related amendments, between ANR, Inc. and First Tennessee Bank National Association. DCMWC Reauthorization Process In July 2019, the U.S. Department of Labor (Division of Coal Mine Workers’ Compensation or “DCMWC”) began implementing a new authorization process for all self-insured coal mine operators. As requested by the DCMWC, the Company filed an application and supporting documentation for reauthorization to self-insure certain of its black lung obligations in October 2019. As a result of this application, the DCMWC notified the Company in a letter dated February 21, 2020 that the Company was reauthorized to self-insure certain of its black lung obligations for a period of one-year from February 21, 2020. The DCMWC reauthorization is contingent, however, upon the Company’s providing collateral of $65,700 to secure certain of its black lung obligations. This proposed collateral requirement is an increase from the approximate $2,600 in collateral that the Company currently provides to secure these self-insured black lung obligations. The reauthorization process provided the Company with the right to appeal the security determination in writing within 30 days of the date of the notification, which appeal period the DCMWC agreed to extend to May 22, 2020. The Company exercised this right of appeal in connection with the substantial increase in the amount of required collateral. If the Company’s appeal is unsuccessful, the Company may be required to provide additional letters of credit to receive the self-insurance reauthorization from the DCMWC or alternatively insure these black lung obligations through a third party provider that would likely also require the Company to provide collateral. Either of these outcomes could potentially reduce the Company’s liquidity. (d) Legal Proceedings The Company is party to legal proceedings from time to time. These proceedings, as well as governmental examinations, could involve various business units and a variety of claims including, but not limited to, contract disputes, personal injury claims, property damage claims (including those resulting from blasting, trucking and flooding), environmental and safety issues, securities-related matters and employment matters. While some legal matters may specify the damages claimed by the plaintiffs, many seek an unquantified amount of damages. Even when the amount of damages claimed against the Company or its subsidiaries is stated, (i) the claimed amount may be exaggerated or unsupported; (ii) the claim may be based on a novel legal theory or involve a large number of parties; (iii) there may be uncertainty as to the likelihood of a class being certified or the ultimate size of the class; (iv) there may be uncertainty as to the outcome of pending appeals or motions; and/or (v) there may be significant factual issues to be resolved. As a result, if such legal matters arise in the future, the Company may be unable to estimate a range of possible loss for matters that have not yet progressed sufficiently through discovery and development of important factual information and legal issues. The Company records accruals based on an estimate of the ultimate outcome of these matters, but these estimates can be difficult to determine and involve significant judgment. |

Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract] | |
Basis of Presentation | Basis of Presentation Together, the condensed consolidated statements of operations, comprehensive loss, balance sheets, cash flows and stockholders’ equity for the Company are referred to as the “Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.” The Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements are also referenced across periods as “Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations,” “Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Loss,” “Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets,” “Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows,” and “Condensed Consolidated Statements of Stockholders’ Equity.” The Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements include all wholly-owned subsidiaries’ results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019. All significant intercompany transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. |
Liquidity Risk and Uncertainties | Liquidity Risks and UncertaintiesWeak market conditions and depressed coal prices have resulted in operating losses. If market conditions do not improve, the Company may experience continued operating losses and cash outflows in the coming quarters, which would adversely affect its liquidity. The Company may need to raise additional funds more quickly if market conditions deteriorate, and may not be able to do so in a timely fashion, or at all. The Company believes it will have sufficient liquidity to meet its working capital requirements, anticipated capital expenditures, debt service requirements, acquisition-related obligations, and reclamation obligations for the 12 months subsequent to the issuance of these financial statements. The Company relies on a number of assumptions in budgeting for future activities. These include the costs for mine development to sustain capacity of its operating mines, cash flows from operations, effects of regulation and taxes by governmental agencies, mining technology improvements and reclamation costs. These assumptions are inherently subject to significant business, political, economic, regulatory, environmental and competitive uncertainties, contingencies and risks, all of which are difficult to predict and many of which are beyond the Company’s control. Therefore, the cash on hand and from future operations will be subject to any significant changes in these assumptions. |

(2) The depreciation, depletion and amortization is related to an increase in the Company’s estimate of its asset retirement obligations with respect to the Western Mines as a result of the Blackjewel Chapter 11 bankruptcy filing on July 1, 2019. The Company remeasured its asset retirement obligations based on the expectation that the mining permits would not transfer to Blackjewel and Blackjewel would be unable to perform its contractual obligation to reclaim the properties. The increase in the asset retirement obligation was recorded to expense as the Company no longer owned the underlying mining assets. (3) The accretion on asset retirement obligations is related to the asset retirement obligation as a result of the Blackjewel bankruptcy filing. (4) The asset impairment is primarily related to the write-off of a tax receivable. The Company was considered to be the primary obligor for certain taxes that Blackjewel was contractually obligated to pay. During the nine months ended September 30, 2019, the Company recorded an impairment charge for the offsetting receivable from Blackjewel as a result of the Blackjewel bankruptcy filing. The major components of cash flows related to discontinued operations are as follows: Three Months Ended September 30, 2019 Nine Months Ended September 30, 2019 Other significant operating non-cash items related to discontinued operations: Depreciation, depletion and amortization $ — $ 145,913 Accretion on asset retirement obligations $ 4,981 $ 4,981 Asset impairment $ 694 $ 17,162 |
