Coal production<\/strong>
The Group strikes high efficiency and safety in coal mining.
The Dafanpu Coal Mine currently adopts a comprehensive mechanized top-coal caving mining method which allows mining a full height of coal seams at one time, replaced the original top coal caving technology of mining coal seams layer by layer. It enables the Group\u2019s mining efficiency leading in the industry. Attributing to the Dafanpu\u2019s comprehensive mechanization in production, the optimized structure of the Group\u2019s production workforce, the Group\u2019s staff costs always maintain at a low level in the industry. Furthermore, a washing plant with over 6.5 million tonnes annual capacity is constructed in the Dafanpu Coal Mines. The Group plans to build a coal washing plant at Ningxia Yongan Coal Mine Industrial Factory with an annual processing capacity of 2.4 million tonnes to support the operation of Yongan and Weiyi Coal Mines.
Besides, the Group\u2019s owns 45% equity in Xiaojia station and its associated spur lines. Xiaojia Station is about 1200 metres north of the industrial square of the Dafanpu Coal Mines; the geographical area is advantageous and convenient.\u00a0 The average handling capacity for Xiaojia station is approximately 5,000 tonnes per hour.\u00a0 It enables the Group to transport the self-produced coal from the Dafanpu Coal Mine and coal procured from third parties to Qinhuangdao via Datong-Zhungeer Railway and Datong-Qinhuangdao Rail Line, satisfies the logistic demands for the Group\u2019s continuous growth in the coal sales and trading business.
The Group has developed a coal trading centre in Qinhuangdao.
