蒙古国总理阿勒坦呼亚格2月20日表示,蒙古国将继续扩大煤炭生产规模及出口量。阿勒坦呼亚格当天在一个煤炭国际投资展览会上表示,2013年蒙古国煤炭出口总量为1.8亿t,预计今年出口量为3.4亿t。业内人士指出,制约蒙古国煤炭出口的因素主要在于物流成本巨大。作为蒙古国煤炭消费的重要市场之一,中国与蒙古国签订了煤炭出口及加工协议,根据协议,未来20年内中国将从蒙古国进口10亿t煤炭。 On January 20, Mongolian Prime Minister Aletan Sheikh said that Mongolia will continue to expand its coal production and export volume. Altanhiague said at a coal international investment fair the same day that Mongolia exported a total of 180 million tons of coal in 2013 and expects 340 million tons of exports this year. Insiders pointed out that the main factor restricting the export of coal in Mongolia is the huge logistics costs. As one of the important markets for coal consumption in Mongolia, China and Mongolia have signed an agreement on the export and processing of coal. According to the agreement, China will import 1 billion tons of coal from Mongolia in the next 20 years.
