PRICING NOTICE: Correction to Metal Bulletin’s cfr China PHCC and HCC coking coal indices

Due to a technical error, Metal Bulletin’s cfr China PHCC and HCC coking coal indices were published incorrectly on Monday July 16.

The cfr China PHCC index should have been $186.78 per tonne on July 16, instead of $185.08 per tonne as published yesterday.
