HONG KONG, Oct 16 (Bernama-GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The board of directors (the “Board”) of Mongolian Mining Corporation (the “Company”, together with its subsidiaries, collectively the “Group”) wishes to announce the unaudited operational update for the quarter ended 30 September 2025. The comparative figures for the quarter ended 30 September 2024 and the quarter ended 30 June 2025 are also disclosed in this announcement (if and as applicable).

The Company is the largest internationally listed private mining company with operations focused on and located in Mongolia. The Group has consolidated a diversified business portfolio to develop and operate coking (metallurgical) coal, gold, copper, and other non-ferrous metals mining assets in southern and western regions of Mongolia.

The Group is the largest producer and exporter of washed coking coal products in Mongolia.

The Group’s operating subsidiaries ER and KEX sold a total of 2,303.2 thousand tonnes (“kt”) of washed coking coal products in the third quarter of 2025.

During the quarter ended 30 September 2025, the Group’s run-of-mine (“ROM”) coal mining combined output from UHG and BN mines was 3,604.3 kt, representing 5% QoQ increase and 16% YoY decrease as compared to the corresponding period ended 30 June 2025 and 30 September 2024, respectively. The Group processed a total 3,753.8 kt of ROM coking coal to produce 2,103.0 kt of washed coking coal products, representing 3% QoQ decrease compared to the previous quarter ended 30 June 2025 and 9% YoY increase compared to the corresponding period ended 30 September 2024.
