South African Coal News: * South Africa’s thermal coal exports in the first half of 2020 fell 9% amid a sharp downturn in demand from the country’s main customer, India, customs data showed. Seaborne shipments by the world’s fourth-largest thermal coal exporter totalled 34.9m tonnes, with June loadings down 6.5% on the year at 6.2m tonnes. India remained the largest customer, accounting for 40% of the first-half export total, but shipments were still down sharply, by 36% to 14.1m tonnes.

Australian Coal News:
*Australia's thermal coal exports during January-June were slightly ahead of the same period in 2019, although the outlook for the second half is for lower sales as mining firms react to loss-making weaker prices. Australia exported 17.67mn t of thermal coal in June, up from a revised 15.95mn t in May but down from 18.07mn t in June 2019, according to data from the Australian Bureau of Statistics (ABS).
