Trafigura is still chasing down the funds almost two years after news broke that it was on the hook for almost $600 million.
China’s coal imports dropped 11.8 percent in the first half of the year to 70.49 million tonnes while exports also fell 13.7 percent to 8.75 million tonnes.
During the period, the nation recorded a net import of 61.74 million tonnes of coal.
The figure fell 11.5 percent year-on-year amid surging international coal prices, according to figures released Friday by the China National Coal Association.
