Reliability: Our coal operation

The Cerrejón mining complex is an open-pit coal mining operation. Cerrejón thermal coal is a mainly unwashed, crushed product derived from a blend of seams from coal deposits that lie in an area spanning 69,000 hectares – the size of Nice, France or Tucson, Arizona. Cerrejón mining activities take place in areas totaling less than 11,000 hectares, approximately 0.55% of all the land in La Guajira.

Our standard product is 11,000 Btu/lb, GAR.

We work closely with the Cerrejón operations team to react swiftly to customers’ needs and changing schedules. This fully integrated operation enables the uninterrupted and secure delivery of Cerrejón coal globally.
