SOUTH KALIMANTAN COAL PRODUCTION EXPECTED TO INCREASE - ESDM


Coal production from the South Kalimantan region has the potential to increase in the next few years. Aside from the vast proven reserves of coal, several companies are also currently in the exploration and construction stages in the area.

“South Kalimantan coal production has the potential to increase” explains the Minister of Energy and Mineral Resources, Purnomo Yusgiantoro while accompanying Vice President in Banjarmasin. Also present was the Governor of South Kalimantan, the board of directors of PT Krakatau Steel, PT Aneka Tambang, and other guests.

The Minister explains that the 2008 South Kalimantan coal production realization until the month of November reached 71,9 tonnes, of which 68,2 million tonnes is sold both locally and internationally, 48,3 tonnes and 19,9 tonnes consecutively. By the end of 2008, production is expected to reach 78,5 million tonnes.

This production is expected to keep increasing in the years to come, or at least for the next five years. The 2009 production target is set at 86,8 million tonnes, while 2010 it is estimated to reach 97,4 million tonnes, reaching its peak of 101,1 million tonnes in 2011. 2012 coal production is expected to slightly decline, totalling 96,4 million tonnes.

Currently there are 17 coal companies whom are applying the PKP2B model, with a combined mining capacity of 2,994 billion tonnes. Current coal deposit is estimated at 1,390 billion tonnes. Coal deposit for the whole of South Kalimantan is at 1,669 million tonnes.

The quality of South Kalimantan coal in general contains a calorific value of 3578 – 7298 kcal/kg; 0,04 – 2,94 % sulphur; 1-27,19% ash; 35 – 45,9% fix carbon; 38 – 70 HGI; 27,7 – 48,5% volatile matter; 3,54 – 24% inherent moister; and total moisture of 3,54 – 45%.

Beside its vast amount of coal, South Kalimantan is also rich in mineral reserves. According to data from the Center of Energy Resources, South Kalimantan has several mineral reserves including primary iron (9,9 million tonnes of ore and 5,97 million tonnes of metal), laterite iron (510 million tonnes of ore and 240,57 million tonnes of metal), laterite titanium (596,49 million tonnes of ore and 2,164 tonnes of metal), chrome (152 thousand tonnes of ore and 45,5 thousand tonnes of metal), primary gold (259,7 million tonnes of ore and 1,173 tonnes of metal), and placer gold (255,8 million tonnes of ore and 28,946 tonnes of metal).
