Peabody Energy Corp. and Consol Energy Corp. operate the two coal mines that lead the U.S. in violations, with more than double the total of Massey Energy Co.’s operation where 29 people were killed this month.
The mines controlled by Peabody, the largest U.S. coal producer, and Consol have collected more than 1,300 citations since January 2009, according to the U.S. Labor Department’s Mine Safety and Health Administration.
