POSSIBLE COAL EXPORT RESTRICTIONS ON INDONESIA UNLIKELY TO AFFECT CHURCHILL MINING - PROACTIVE INVESTORS


Proactive Investors reported that, Churchill Mining moved to reassure investors after a fall in its share price, stating that from talks with the authorities in Indonesia, it believes that any potential coal export restrictions may not affect it because of its supply arrangements with Indonesia’s state power provider PLN.

The statement was in response to today’s 8 percent decline in Churchill’s share price, apparently triggered by press speculation about the government’s possible plans to introduce export restrictions on certain grades of coal.

On Thursday, reports surfaced that Indonesia is preparing to place a ban on the export of low quality coal with an energy value of below 5,600 kilocalories per kilogram. The government wants producers to upgrade the coal to a higher energy value product in an effort to increase the country’s export revenue.

“From discussion with the relevant authorities, Churchill believes that any export restrictions will not apply to all producers and expects that further details may clarify that any export restrictions may not apply to Churchill because of the coal supply arrangement in place with the PLN,” said Churchill.

Churchill has created an Indonesian advisory board, which is participating in the ongoing discussions, that “guarantees access to all levels of industry and government” and it has negotiated an off-take deal with the state electricity company.

The company pledged to update the market “when appropriate”.

Churchill also reiterated that it is working with Indonesian state power provider PLN, expecting to meet all of its obligations to supply the domestic market via this relationship.

Back in December, Churchill acquired the land to be used as the site of the future port facility for the shipment of coal from the East Kutai project in Indonesia.Churchill has hired Credit Suisse to find a “big brother with deep pockets” to fund the development of the mine, which has a net present value of US$1.8 billion.

However, Churchill is keeping all of its options open and is still looking at possibly running East Kutai as a stand-alone project funded by equity and debt.

In September the company passed a major milestone when the eagerly awaited feasibility study confirmed East Kutai as a world class deposit with a JORC resource of 2.73 billion tonnes.
