Anthracite lump coal prices continue to rise

After entering November, the domestic anthracite market continued to grow steadily, and the price of anthracite lump coal continued to rise in some coal mines, ranging from 20-70 CNY/ton. Today, a coal mine in Handan District, Hebei Province slightly raised the price of anthracite medium block by 20 CNY/ton. It is understood that the coal quality of the mine is good. In addition, the upstream and downstream users are active in purchasing civil coal, which drives the price of coal to rise. After the rise, the acceptance price including tax of the coal mine will be 1100 CNY/ton. In Jincheng District, a coal enterprise will raise the price of anthracite lump coal by 35-60 CNY/ton, and after the rise, the acceptance price including tax of the anthracite medium block car board will be 1050 CNY/ton. At the end of the coal enterprise, it is understood that The price of coal has not been adjusted yet, and now we are waiting for the market. In the near future, the anthracite lump coal market has a good trend due to the positive impact of civil coal supply.

But after the middle of the year, with the end of the peak period of civil coal storage, the lump coal market will continue to rise in price or lack of power, and then it will stabilize. In addition, according to market news, on November 4, the price of a coal enterprise in Handan, Hebei Province increased by 20 CNY/ton, which was the cloud mine medium block, and the prices of other mines were stable. The output of sintering coal is general, and the stock of coal enterprises is still on the high side.

In November, the price of anthracite bulk coal train purchased by a chemical plant in Weifang District of Shandong Province from Jincheng district increased by 35-70 CNY/ton. At present, the purchase strategy of the plant is mainly on demand, and the start-up is basically full load. Anthracite is mainly purchased from Jincheng and Yangquan coal mines. It mainly cooperates with large-scale mining railway, and the train freight is about 160 CNY/ton.

Future forecast: in terms of lump coal, the anthracite lump coal market continues to develop well in the near future. It is understood that the high-quality anthracite lump coal shipments in Shanxi, Henan, Hebei and other regions are in good condition, and the current delivery pressure of coal enterprises is not large. Downstream chemical enterprises mostly purchase on demand, and the purchase demand changes little. Before the middle of November, it is not ruled out that some coal mines in the production area may continue to raise the price of anthracite lump coal. In terms of final coal, on November 4, six major coastal electric power data: inventory 16.788 million tons, daily consumption 568300 tons, available 29.5 tons. The decline of daily consumption and the high inventory have a certain negative effect on the power coal market. In the near future, the power plant has a general demand for anthracite powder coal procurement, and the steel plant metallurgical powder coal procurement is weak, some users still have a certain intention to reduce the price. It is expected that the anthracite market will be stable, moderate and weak in the near future, and the difficulty of price hike in some coal mines in the production area will increase.
