Indonesia-listed state coal miner PT Bukit Asam (Persero) announced on Friday that it has reached deal to sell coal to state electricity firm PT PLN (Persero) at Rp.825,000 (CIF) (US$=Rp.9,200) per ton for 2012.
The new price is 1.21 percent higher than last year?s price of Rp.815,000 per ton, the company said.
