Bens Creek Group PLC - Owner of a metallurgical coal mine in the US state of West Virginia - Sass wholly-owned subsidiary Bens Creek Operations WV LLC agrees with Bens Creek's largest shareholder Avani Resources Pte to deliver three unit trains comprising a total of 33,000 short tons of Bens Creek High Vol B metallurgical coal. Says the delivery of the coal is expected to be made, subject to train delays, no later than the end of January. Says this sale is in addition to "existing and ongoing business". Says the coal is being purchased by Avani at a price which is "in line with current market rates for the sale and purchase of High Vol B coal" and that the quality of the coal will be "in keeping with standard production" from the Bens Creek mine. Says this agreement follows on from Avani entering into a non-exclusive sales and marketing agreement, as announced in July. Bens Creek Chief Executive Officer Adam Wilson says: "We are delighted to book our first trade with Avani. It demonstrates their ongoing commitment to the business, and it is the first step to what will, we hope, become a burgeoning and profitable partnership."
