China march coal imports @ 26.7 million tonnes China seaborne @ 23.2 million tonnes
Mongolia March export was @ 3.44/3.5 million tons(3.445)
These numbers are from three different and completely separate sources. Now onto April and May... which needs to be clarified...eh?...because I see discrepancies...be it data problems.
The March numbers are accurate...and very interesting to say the least.
Is it possible that March is just an anomaly where the numbers actually fit together nicely? Is it possible that the China coal imports number is distorted by the Chinese government to present a more robust view of the economy?
