The Q4  swap contract for Indonesia sub-bituminous coal was also dropped  -8.84 percent  M-o-M and CFR South China coal contracts dropped  -7.87 percent  M-o-M.

Falling coal prices send miner’s share price into a steep decline. Indonesian coal miners shares were dropping since early of this month. However Indonesian big scale coal miners are still clam and they believe the current coal price trend will be changed soon.

Bumi Resources, the Indonesia's largest coal producer,  doesn’t  want to review their expansion plan for 2013 in light of the current coal price weakness, According to Dileep Srivastava, corporate secretary of company. 

"We view present spot weakness as temporary, seasonal and rise as winter approaches", he said in a note.
