Up until the first semester of 2010, the realization of capital expenditure has reached Rp 420 billion-Rp 560 billion which will be mostly used for opening out mining infrastructures.
PTBA is targeting that the production volume in 2010 will reach around 15 million tonnes. Earlier in 2009, the company sold 12.5 million tonnes with a total production of 11.6 million tonnes.
