Hargreaves Services placing to raise £42M

UK Coal is to shutdown two out of the last three of Britain’s deep coal mines through a staged closure, supported by a £10M loan from the Government.

Coal imports are boosting the UK’s major bulk ports while agribulks are improving smaller ports’ prospects.

Several interesting projects and co-operation agreements in the bulk crane sector have recently been reported around the world. First, Shanghaibased Zhenhua Shanghai Port Machinery Company (ZPMC) has won an order from the Port of Esperance in Western Australia for a dual-purpose crane for container and grab duty.
