Coal Mining in the US
Burning up: The demand for coal is dominated by its use as a fuel for power generation; in particular, metallurgical coal is experiencing a surge in interest as companies are scrambling to meet demand for steel overseas. Natural gas generation will likely become more competitive as the threat of regulation looms over the Coal Mining industry. Still, an upsurge in demand from cheap low-sulfur coals will support steady growth.
Firms in this industry mine various types of coal. Most coal mines consist of bituminous coal or anthracite (types of black coal), but firms may also mine lignite (brown coal). Mining occurs underground and in surface pits. Industry firms may also develop coal mine sites and prepare the coal for sale by washing, screening and sizing it.
This report covers the scope, size, disposition and growth of the industry including the key sensitivities and success factors. Also included are five year industry forecasts, growth rates and an analysis of the industry key players and their market shares.
