XSTRATA RAISES BENCHMARK COAL PRICE AS MUCH AS 40% - BLOOMBERG


Bloomberg reported that, Xstrata Plc, the world’s largest exporter of coal used for power, raised benchmark prices for the fuel to an unidentified Japanese utility as much as 40 percent as a recovery in economic growth in Asia spurs demand.

Zug, Switzerland-based Xstrata agreed to contract prices for the next 12 months at $98 a metric ton, it said in a statement. The figure compares with the $70-$72 a ton for the previous year, cited in the company’s annual report.

“It’s a good price,” John Meyer, an analyst at Fairfax IS in London, said by phone today. “It reflects the increasing demand for thermal coal for electrical generation around Asia. It should be directly correlated with expectations for economic growth in the region and reflects the increasing cost of coal mining in Australia.”

China’s coal imports more than doubled to 13.1 million metric tons in February, underpinned by power demand, according to customs data. The country paid about $92 a ton for coal in the month. Thermal coal prices to China on delivered terms rose to as high as $120 a metric ton in January from less than $90 a year earlier, Macquarie Group Ltd. said in a report this month.

Contract negotiations with Japanese customers will continue next week, Xstrata said in today’s statement.
