en.Wedoany.com Reported - On April 8, 2026, the Suburga Coal Mine project, located in the Yijinhuoluo Banner of Ordos City, Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region, China, officially commenced construction. With a total investment exceeding 10.9 billion yuan, the project is planned for an annual production capacity of 8 million tons and includes the construction of a coal preparation plant of equal scale. It is expected to be completed and operational by 2029.
The Suburga Coal Mine is situated in the Nalinxili Mining Area of the Dongsheng Coalfield in Ordos. It is one of the four planned mine fields within the Nalinxili Mining Area, covering an area of 79.3 square kilometers. The proven coal reserves in the mining area are 1.657 billion tons, with a designed recoverable reserve of 975 million tons. The coal type is characterized by ultra-low ash, ultra-low sulfur, high calorific value, and is non-caking coal, belonging to high-quality thermal coal resources. The mine adopts a vertical shaft development method, with four shafts arranged: a main shaft, an auxiliary shaft, and two ventilation shafts. The project received approval from China's National Development and Reform Commission in April 2025, and all preparatory procedures were completed within 12 months.
The Suburga Coal Mine is the first large-scale coal mine project to commence construction during China's "15th Five-Year Plan" period. It is also listed as a key construction project for the Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region's "15th Five-Year Plan" and serves as a crucial coal source support project for the national plan's "Inner Mongolia Power to Anhui" large-scale base. Upon completion and operation, the project will effectively enhance the region's stable energy supply capacity and further solidify the foundation for building national coal supply guarantee bases.
The Suburga Coal Mine project is jointly developed by Bayannur Energy (Group) Co., Ltd. (referred to as "BaNeng Group") and Huaihe Energy Holding Group. BaNeng Group, formerly known as Inner Mongolia Nao'er Kaiyuan Industrial (Group) Co., Ltd., was established in February 2018. It is a state-owned wholly-owned company approved by the Bayannur municipal government, with a registered capital of 1.5 billion yuan. The group focuses on three core business segments: port investment, development, and bulk trading; new energy development and utilization; and mineral resource development and utilization. Huaihe Energy Holding Group is an enterprise group primarily engaged in coal and power energy, with coordinated development across clean energy, logistics, finance, technical services, and other industries. It is ranked among China's Top 500 Enterprise Groups and is a key backbone enterprise in Anhui Province, as well as one of the 14 national 100-million-ton coal bases and six large-scale coal-power bases.
At the capital operation level, this project holds landmark significance. BaNeng Group acquired 100% equity of the project in 2018 and transferred 51% of the equity to Huaihe Mining Group for 7.297 billion yuan in 2023, setting dual records for the highest amount and the largest premium in local state-owned asset disposal.
At the groundbreaking ceremony, Cui Jingui, Director of the Bayannur SASAC, Zhou Shudong, General Manager of BaNeng Group, and Wang Fei, Deputy General Manager, were present. Representatives from the project's design, construction, supervision, and other participating units jointly witnessed the project launch.
