United Coal Holdings Ltd., has acquired two mining
leases, AD262-65 (1792 acres) and AD1238-86 (257
acres) and has applied for 200 square kilometres explo-
ration licence in the Kotli Coal district in Azad Jammu
and Kashmir, Pakistan.
Test shipments of coal from United Coal’s Mining leases
have been sold to a local cement plant owned by the
Fauji Cement Company. The Fauji Cement Company
used 1,128,258 MT of coal in its cement operations
in 2010. This is just one of the potential coal
customers in the area.
The coal reserves in Pakistan are estimated at over 183
billion tonnes. However, the measured or drill-proven
reserves are estimated at 579 million tonnes.
In Pakistan, nearly 80% of coal mines are being
operated by small mine owners. Average annual
coal production is 4.5 million tonnes, out of which
more than 90% is consumed in the brick and cement
industry. There is huge potential for growth and
consolidation in the industry.
World Coal ConsumptionWorld coal consumption is projected to increase to
7.6 billion tonnes in 2020. Coal use in developing
countries of Asia alone is projected to increase by 2.4
billion tonnes. China is projected to add an estimated
180 gigawatts of new coal fi red power generating
capacity (600 plants of 300 megawatts each) by 2020
and India approximately 50 gigawatts (167 plants of
300 megawatts each)

United Coal Holdings Ltd. ( TSX- V enture: UCL &
Frankfurt Stock Exchange: JM6) is a exploration
resource company located in
Vancouver, Canada, engaged in the
acquisition and development of resource
properties. The Company’s principal mandate
is to acquire properties that have the potential
to become profi table near term producers.
United Coal is aggressively engaged in
the acquisition and development of resource
properties in the State of Azad Jammu and
Kashmir (AJK) in Pakistan. Pakistan is
encouraging the use of coal due to its lack of
oil and gas reserves and the relative abundance
of higher quality coal in AJK. There are vast local
markets to supply fuel for the concrete industry
and the production of electricity. Coal mining
contributes to the local economy and lessens
the demand to import foreign oil.
