In 2021, the production and sales of self-produced coal increased significantly, and the sales volume of trade coal decreased slightly. According to the company’s performance forecast in 2021, the company’s coal sales volume in 2021 was 232 million tons, a year-on-year decrease of 3.88%; Among them, the sales volume of self-produced coal was 134 million tons (the company’s business data in December 2021), and the company achieved 136 million tons of raw coal in 2021, with a year-on-year increase of 8.39%; The production and marketing rate reached 98.52%. The growth of the company’s self-produced coal sales is mainly due to the strong downstream demand in 2021 and the improvement of capacity utilization, thus increasing the total coal supply and marketing. The sales of trade coal has declined, mainly due to the tight overall coal supply and demand in 2021, and the company’s purchase of trade coal has been affected to a certain extent.
