Annual Outlook for Coking Coal
2009 October issue
Coal markets wax and wane
  • 2008 saw coal prices surge to record highs amid chronic supply problems. Contract prices for Australian hard coals increased by 206% year-on-year to $300/t fob, while semi-soft and PCI coal benchmarks were up 265-275% to $240-248/t fob. The spectacular gains were triggered by soaring demand and massive disruptions to coal supply early in the year.
