With a total of 120 billion tons of demonstrated coal reserves and 75 billion tons of proven coal reserves, Montana far exceeds other coal-producing states, making it a top target for investors looking to tap into Montana's rich natural resources. We're dedicated to breaking down barriers to coal development.

In 2007, the total value of oil and gas produced in Montana was over $2.4 billion. An additional $5.0 billion worth of refinery output was produced in the state. Applying the appropriate multipliers, the total value of output produced in Montana is more than $9 billion. Similarly, the 4,500 jobs directly supported by these industries support more than 7,500 additional jobs elsewhere in the state economy, for a total impact of over 12,000 positions in Montana.
It doesn't have to be this way! Workers and businesses alike could
benefit from innovative policies that make Montana more business
friendly and Montanans better off.
