Price Ranges for Tanzanian Coal (Per Metric Ton)

Factor Category Specific Type / Grade Approx. Price Range (USD $) Key Notes & Conditions
By Grade & Quality Thermal Coal (Low Grade) $45 – $65 Lower calorific value, higher ash/moisture content. For local industrial use (e.g., brick kilns, curing tea).
Thermal Coal (Standard Grade) $70 – $95 Medium calorific value. The most common range for export-focused offers.
Thermal Coal (Washed/High Grade) $100 – $120 Processed to reduce impurities and increase energy content. More competitive internationally.
Metallurgical (Coking) Coal $180 – $250+ Requires confirmation of coking properties. Significantly rarer and more valuable than thermal coal.
By Location & Terms Ex-Mine (at the mine gate) $40 – $70 Price for coal loaded onto the buyer’s truck at the mining site. Buyer bears all transport costs.
FOB Dar es Salaam (Free On Board) $90 – $150+ Most important for international trade. Price includes all costs to get the coal to and loaded onto the ship at the port. The benchmark for export contracts.
CIF/CFR (Cost, Insurance, Freight) Varies Dramatically Price for coal delivered to a foreign port (e.g., India, Oman). Highly dependent on volatile international shipping costs.
By Quantity Small Batch (e.g., < 1,000 MT) Higher within ranges Higher per-ton cost due to logistics.
Bulk Shipment (e.g., 10,000+ MT) Lower within ranges Lower per-ton cost due to economies of scale on loading and shipping.
