POSSIBILITY LIMITATION IN EXPORT COAL

• shortage of transportation and other capacities
  of the railways
• shortage of capacities of the Far Eastern
  sea-ports for coal transshipment
• absence of close railway branches to China
• unbalanced tariff policy for rail conveyances.

POTENTIALS FOR INCREASING EXPORT in NEA COUNTRIES

• The Elginsky open-pit mine
• the particularly valuable ranks ?? and ?.
• According to the project the annual volume of raw
  coal mining will amount to 30 million t, from
  which it is possible to get 23.2 million t of
  marketable coal products, including
• 9.33 million t of steaming coals
• 7.55 million t of coking coal concentrate
• 4.37 million t of industrial products.
• the Tugnuisky open-pit mine with a capacity of 6
  million to 9 million t per year.
• the rank ? with ash content of 17.1-19.3 and
  sulfur content from 1.4 to 5.5.
• construction of the processing capacity 4.5
  million t /year (to supply up t? 2.5 3.0
  million t/year of coal for export).
• the Elegetskoye and Medzhigeiskoye deposits of
  coking coal
• scarce ranks ? and ?? with medium ash (11.8)
  and low sulfur (0.19-1.18) content
• It is planned to construct here 3 mines and 2
  concentrating mills with a capacity of 12.5
  million t of coking coal
