Mongolia exported 1 million tonnes of coal for all uses during September, marking a fall of 3.9% on month and a huge 78.3% plunge on year, according to the country’s Customs published on October 7.

Though deliveries to China, the destination of almost all Mongolian coal for export, were disrupted again in early September by measures imposed to contain the coronavirus, the drop in tonnage was partly offset later in the month when shipments recovered, according to sources.
