摘要

MADRID - It was dancing season in Spain early this week. It's a dance done every year about this time at the Coaltrans World Conference. For every two people in attendance at the actual presentations, there are 14 more outside doing the "dance" - making the deals that will help shape the Q1 coal market. "If you know the business, you know what the games are and you know what the dance involves, and how long it's going to last," an experienced US producer said on the sidelines of this year's Coaltrans conference.
