FLASH: Coal imports via China's Ceke port plummet in Feb

Total coal imports through North China' Ceke land port, the second-largest coal inland road border crossing between China and Mongolia, plummeted to an average of 248 trucks per day during February 1-26, down by a substantial 52.6% on month and 25.8% on year, Mysteel's track data showed.

The drop in coal shipments to Ceke was primarily due to a 18-day suspension of coal sales at Mongolia's Nariin Sukhait mine and Khuren Tolgoi mine since February 5. The two mines had just resumed offering coal cargoes in the market on February 22, Mysteel heard from market sources. As
