A representative of Quang Hanh Coal Company, Cam Pha City today (May 5) said that right after the ceremony of attaching a signboard for the project "Construction to bring the 1-storey market No. -175/-300, part of the Project to be exploited below -50 Nga Hai coal mine" on April 2, 2025, market No. 1 has exploited the first 150 tons of coal, marking an important step forward when the Company officially exploited at -300 meters.
This project started in 2020, and by March 2025, the Company had completed more than 7,700 meters of kilns.
According to the original plan, market No. 1 was expected to be put into operation in July 2025. However, in response to the requirements of the Vietnam National Coal and Mineral Industries Group (TKV), the Company has made efforts to speed up the progress of striving to put market No. 1 into operation 3 months earlier than expected.
In the course of the project implementation, Quang Hanh Coal Company faced many difficulties, especially the effects of typhoon No. 3 and the unexpected change of 15 pavement geology compared to the initial plan, forced to adjust the construction plan. To ensure the progress, from October 2024 to the end of January 2025, Quang Hanh Coal Company organized 6 constructions and continuously trimmed. As a result, many important items such as conveyor wells, unloading stations, bunke contain coal, pumping systems, central power stations and marketing of market -200/-175 furnace have been completed earlier than the plan.
By March 15, 2025, the project had completed the zoning of the market kiln, installed and put market kiln No. 1 into operation.
This achievement not only opens up new production areas, contributing to maintaining and increasing the unit's exploitation output but also meets the coal demand for the economy, realizing the development goals of the Vietnamese coal industry in the period of 2025-2030 and the following years.
In parallel with accelerating the exploitation progress, Quang Hanh Coal Company also focuses on investing in 3 key projects to serve effective and sustainable production, including: Investment project to upgrade the system of floating power supply -175/-300 Nga Hai coal mine; Investment project of conveyor belt system and personnel handling for floating production -175/-300; Investment project of tunnel power supply system for production and investment in drainage equipment. The investment in these projects aims to ensure stable and safe power supply for exploitation activities at high depths, improve coal transportation efficiency and ensure safety for workers when moving in the mines.
In 2025, Quang Hanh Coal Company aims to exploit more than 1 million tons of coal and dig more than 3,000 new meters of furnaces according to the technical plan for exploiting the -175/-300 layer. It is expected that by 2027, the mine capacity will increase to 1.7 million tons of coal/year, contributing significantly to meeting the coal demand of the market, especially coal for electricity production and the economic growth target according to the Government's direction.
