Singapore—Asia-Pacific metallurgical coal prices delivered to China were unchanged on the day, but nudged lower for the PLV FOB Australia category due to a lower firm offer on Oct. 2. S&P Global Platts assessed Premium Low Vol down 50 cents/mt at $138.050/mt FOB Australia Oct. 2, while PLV CFR China was unchanged at $148.50/mt CFR China. The spot market saw another day of thin trading as buy and sell side participants retreated to the sidelines.
