> Anthracite
Making up about one percent of all forms of coal reserves in the world, anthracite is the oldest and rarest of the geological formations of coal. Anthracite has the highest carbon content among all varieties of coal.
It has the highest carbon content among all varieties of coal.
We have access to some of the standard and high grades of Anthracite and have started trading in this product recently. Early market studies show a promising future for this product in our chosen markets.
> Thermal Coal
We are a relationship supplier in the thermal coal space. Our presence is significant only in our chosen market segment.
Majority of our South African sourced coal is distributed in India while that from Indonesia goes to China. However, we do also trade in coal from Australia, Colombia and some other non-traditional sources.
> Coking Coals
Verona is a major supplier of coking coal to India and China. Our strengths lie both in procuring and selling. We procure mainly from the large miners of the world with whom we have continuing relationships for close to a decade. We buy from almost all the coking coal exporting regions like Australia, Africa, Canada, China, Russia and the US. Besides, we do have access to some unconventional sources as well.
This varied sourcing pool allows us to supply almost all varieties of coking coal (prime low volatile, medium volatile or high volatile), semi-hard, semi-soft and others thus striking a techno-economic balance of our customers.
Steel mills of all dimensions across India have used coals supplied by us at some time or other. As with procurement, our approach to sales is also relationship based. It is a relationship forged not only between the customer and our sales but also with the operations team and often with the senior management. This helps us gauge both the customer’s apparent and unarticulated needs.
> Metallurgical Coke
We are a major supplier of metallurgical coke to steel mills, pig iron producers and ferroalloy plants. Metallurgical coke is an extremely quality-sensitive product for the ferrous industry and constitutes a significant proportion of the production costs. Our strategic tie-ups and deep relationships with major coke sources and on-ground presence across the supply chain ensures consistency of product quality and on-time delivery, thereby providing a cost-competitive solution for this critical raw material need of our customers. Apart from Chinese coke, we also supply other origin cokes such as Colombia, US, Korea etc on a case-to-case basis.
> Pulverised Coal Injection (PCI Coal)
Pulverised Coal injection into the blast furnace provides the operator with an option of reducing consumption of the more expensive variant of carbon – metallurgical coke. But metallurgical coke has other useful mechanical duties to perform in the furnace therefore, PCI can’t replace coke consumption completely. Therefore, in a way, Coke & PCI compliment each other in the Blast Furnace operations.
