Description

This paper reports that approximately one-fourth of the world's recoverable coal reserves are located in the United States and about 50% of that coal is deposited in the Western Region. Because of its proximity to West Coast ports, Western steam coal is the best positioned U.S. coal which could play a diversification role in meeting the expanding energy demands of the Pacific Rim. Currently Western U.S. coal has achieved less than a 5% share of the rapidly growing steam coal market in the Pacific Rim
