Journal "Region: Economics and Sociology", 2003, vol. 1

Abstract: The paper presents the quantitative prospects of the coal industry and its sub-industry - coke extraction - taking into account the capacity of the coke coal market, trends in steel and iron industry and sale opportunities of the Russian coal. Notwithstanding Russia's large reserves of coke coals permitting to supply the chemical-recovery enterprises with furnace charge for a long period of time, some of their valuable brands will stay in deficit. Its reduction is possible by reconstructing the present mine enterprises in coal basins, by building new ones in Kuzbas and South-Yakut basins and by improving the enrichment technology. For further growth of output and competitiveness of coke coals, expansion of the transport capabilities and of sea port admissions is required.
