Brule Mine near Chetwynd aims to produce PCI coal
Western Canadian Coal wins provincial permit for the Brule Mine near Chetwynd adjacent to the Dillon Mine. The operation could output up to two million tonnes annually for over a decade, with a baseline of 800 000 tonnes per year and a four year minimum, depending on world coal prices. The ultra low volatile PCI coal is used to replace traditional hard coking coal in steelmaking.

Brule coal project eyed as PCI market grows
Gary Livingstone, CEO of Western, notes optimism as Brule coal shipments to Ridley Terminal near Prince Rupert begin late February. Prices in the high 60s per tonne US contrast with China’s high grade coal at 170, while PCI may replace 30 percent of hard coking coal needs in modern steelmaking. Livingstone argues PCI is underpriced given market dynamics and earlier PCI price spikes.
