Newsletters

Welcome to WoCQI (World Coal Quality Inventory) News. The WoCQI project is now firmly established and making substantial progress. We will be using these periodic electronic newsletters to keep everyone informed of the many WoCQI activities. We invite you to contribute news items that you feel may be appropriate for the newsletter. Send the information by return e-mail for consideration. Also, if you have contacts in the coal-science communities of countries where we have not yet made contact, please let us know. Our goal is to generate reliable, internally consistent coal quality analyses for all coal-producing countries.

The objective of this first newsletter is simply to inform you of the WoCQI status for each of the coal-producing countries. Future editions of the newsletter will provide more detailed information about the activities, samples, and results for individual countries.
