China may increase coking coal imports

21 Apr 2009 16:33 reported by Sharon

A A A
It was reported that China may boost coking coal imports after international prices dived, according to Bloomberg.

Experts said Chinese domestic coal costs about RMB1,000/ton (US$146/ton), but imports of the steelmaking ingredient cost only about US$120/ton plus US$10/ton for freight, that why most Chinese steelmakers would like to import coking coal rather than buy domestic coking coal.

In fact, Asian coking coal prices slashed almost 60 percent this year compared in 2008 after the global recession came about.

For reversing a downturn economy, Chinese government had been spending 4 trillion yuan to spur the economy animation for the sector of building nfrastructure, automobiles by stimulating demand on steel and other metals. However, Shanxi province, the biggest coal-producing region in China, has still resisted cutting prices with foreign rivals and expected domestic steel demand will recover.
