IN BRIEF: Bens Creek notes favourable report on West Virginia assets

Thu, 16th Jun 2022 18:21

Bens Creek Group PLC - London-based mining company focused in North America - Reports updated reserve base evaluation undertaken by Marshall Miller & Associates Inc of its coal properties in Mingo County, West Virginia.

According to the report, the properties contain an estimated in-place reserve base of 92.7 million tonnes, of which 33.6 million is estimated to be recoverable.

"We are delighted that the work undertaken by Marshall Miller has confirmed our expectation of improved coal reserves as a result of our recent coal lease agreements with MGC Inc and Star Ridge combined with our original property. The identified estimated in-place reserve base of 92.7 million tonnes, with an estimated recoverable tonnage of 33.6 million, should ensure that our mining targets are able to extend the life of our mining operations to meet the global demand for metallurgical coal," says Chief Executive Officer Adam Wilson.

Current stock price: 69.20 pence

IN BRIEF: Bens Creek quarterly production grows by more than half

Bens Creek Group - owner of a metallurgical coal mine in the US state of West Virginia - Produces 112,342 clean tons of metallurgical coal between October 1 and December 31, reflecting a 53% increase from 73,655 tons in the same period in 2022. Says it was restricted in production in November and December because of a slowdown in the availability of trains in the quarter, particularly in December, which saw a build-up in inventory to around 90,000 tons. This was then reduced to less than 60,000 tons after some deliveries were completed. Notes that the reduced availability of trains was due to coal handling capacity issues at the Port of Norfolk. Chief Executive Officer Adam Wilson says: "This increased production is further enhanced by the reduction of costs per ton from June 2023, and the recent rebound in the metallurgical coal price from its lows of USD191 in August 2023 to USD250 at the current time."
