International demand drove coal prices higher last year, and that fed a rise in earnings and a stock-price doubling for Foundation Coal Holdings in 2007. The fourth-largest U.S. coal producer by production, it has 13 mining operations in Pennsylvania, West Virginia and Wyoming. The company weathered a nine-day strike last year; closed its Wabash, Ill., mine; and expanded output in Pennsylvania and in Wyoming's Powder River Basin.
