In the third quarter, Shaanxi's raw coal production was 5.8379 million tons.


On the evening of October 28, Shaanxi Energy announced that its controlling subsidiary, Linbei Coal Industry, plans to invest in the Zhangba Coal Mine Project in the Yonglong Mining Area of Shaanxi through a cash contribution, with a total investment of 6.997 billion yuan (excluding mining rights fees), of which the capital contribution is 2.123 billion yuan, accounting for 30.34% of the total investment.  
It is reported that the project will have a construction scale of 5 million tons per year, including a conventional capacity of 4 million tons per year and a reserved capacity of 1 million tons per year, with a coal preparation plant of the same scale to be built to support it. The construction period is about 46 months, with funding coming from self-raised and own funds.  
The industrial site is located in the southwest of the mining field, using a shaft development method, initially adopting a central parallel ventilation system, and arranging one fully mechanized top coal caving face upon production. Underground coal transportation will use belt conveyors, with auxiliary transport using trackless rubber-wheeled vehicles. Coal preparation will employ intelligent dry separation and dense-medium shallow tank separation processes. Dual-circuit power sources will be drawn from the Zhangba 110 kV substation and the Zhaoxian 110 kV substation.  
Shaanxi Energy stated that the Zhangba mining field has relatively abundant coal reserves, and the project aligns with national industrial policies and Shaanxi Province’s development plan, which is conducive to strengthening the company's main coal and power operations and enhancing sustainable development capabilities.  
The company emphasized that the project’s implementation is a careful decision made according to the company's strategic development needs to expand the scale of its main coal and power operations, create new business growth points, and enhance profitability and overall competitiveness. It will help further optimize the company’s industrial structure, effectively increase coal production, lower electricity production costs, and lay a solid foundation for long-term development.
