JSW Steel Announces the Minas de Revuboè (MDR) Coking Coal Mining Project in Mozambique
The MdR project, located in the Moatize coal basin of the Tete Province, Mozambique, grants JSW Steel access to substantial reserves of premium hard coking coal which is a key raw material in steelmaking.
MdR has 850 mt of reserves, and the potential to yield 250 mt of usable coking coal. JSW Steel will develop the mine in phases, with the first phase expected to be developed over the next 2.5 years to produce 2.4 mtpa prime hard coking coal. MdR is located approximately 10 km north of Tete city, 450 km north of Beira Port, and 900 km south-west of Nacala Port - a logistical advantage that positions it as one of the most favourably situated coking coal assets globally for supply to Indian steel plants.
