The Company is currently carrying out feasibility studies for 9 (nine) separate projects, with the first studies expected to be completed in Q3 2019.
These first few projects will focus on expanding existing infrastructure to increase the Company's coal handling capacity by up to 24-30 million tonnes within 3 years. These projects will also ensure that coal handling costs for the Company's clients will drop significantly and thus give these clients a competitive advantage in the market.
