SnapshotThe Batulicin-Sarongga mine produces low calorie sub bituminous coal.

Batulicin Site holds a large amount of coal resource and reserves. Its operational area that is spread out results in diverse coal quality, from lignite to bituminous. The characteristic of the coal is classified as young coal with low calories and high HGI, which both become a challenge for the Batulicin Site. This challenge is responded by implementing the basis of good mining technical principles and implementation of conservation in all aspects of mining. The short hauling distance makes the Batulicin Site own an economical value even though it produces low-calorie coal.
