Coal port resumes ops as Dillon mine loads first train
Ridley Terminals in Prince Rupert restarts after two years idle with a 10,000 tonne PCI coal train from Western Canadian Coal's Dillon mine. First load bound for POSCO plants in South Korea, with future shipments to Europe and Japan. Production targets climb to 5 million tonnes yearly by 2008 amid high coal demand and China-driven price surges. The Dillon mine aims for 1 million tonnes in 2005, expanding to 5 million by 2008.
