history and a map from the Alaska Department of Community & Regional Affairs
Community Database.
Healy was developed by the Usibelli Coal Mine in 1918, and has grown to become Alaska's
largest coal mining operation. The mine supplies 800,000 tons of coal a year, to Golden
Valley Electric, the University of Alaska Fairbanks, the military, and South Korea. The
Usibelli Coal Mine began a successful environmental reclamation program in 1971. Dall
sheep now graze where there was once a strip mine.
