The company's resources continue to land, and the growth potential is worry free. According to the company's announcement on September 17, 2021, the company's 3 million T / a Xinhu coal mine was officially put into operation, and the company's capacity in property rights and interests increased by about 2.04 million T / A. It is expected that the mine can continue to contribute to the output increment in 2022. The approval of taohutu mine means that the equity production capacity of the company is expected to increase by 4.19 million tons / year (the company holds 51% equity of Chengda mining). During the "14th five year plan" period, the company's Zhuzhuang Coal Mine (with a production capacity of 1.6 million tons / year) may be shut down, but the construction of taohutu project is expected to further increase the potential of the company's main coal industry.
The demand for coking coal is expected to increase. Recently, due to the influence of the Spring Festival and the Winter Olympics, the production of downstream coking and steel industry is limited, and the operating rate remains low. With the Winter Olympics coming to an end, the output of steel and coke is expected to pick up, and the demand for coking coal will also recover. Meanwhile, under the background of "steady growth" in 2022, infrastructure investment is expected to rebound. Under this stimulus, the demand for coking coal is expected to increase in 2022.
