Keaton Energy coal delivery down owing to reception constraints

Mpumalanga-based coal miner Keaton Energy on Friday reported a 4%, or 52 372 t, drop in washed 2- and 4-Seam thermal coal delivered to Eskom in the half-year ended September 30. The company, spearheaded by CEO Mandi Glad, explained that the volume drop in its delivery of 139-million tonnes could be attributed to reception constraints at the parastatal, which prevented delivery of full production in the period.
