BEIJING, (UrduPoint / Pakistan Point News - 1st Apr, 2020 ) :Output of raw coal in China fell 6.3 percent year on year to 490 million tonnes in the first two months of 2020 as the novel corona-virus outbreak disrupted production, official data showed.
During the January-February period, Chinese railways transported 370 million tonnes of coal, down 6.2 percent year on year, according to data from the National Bureau of Statistics.
