Welcome to Creamer Media’s Resources Watch, a weekly video round-up of the events and people making and shaping the news in the mining industry.

This week:
An inland terminal rapid rail master plan is urged for new coal basins.
And, Transnet says its take-or-pay contracts offer volume ‘cover’ during a weak commodity climate.

A new logistical concept involving the overland conveying of coal to inland terminals for processing prior to rapid railing to ocean terminals is being proposed for new coal basins.

Logiman associate director technology Lyonell Fliss

State-owned freight logistics group Transnet is budgeting for continued growth in coal and iron-ore export volumes in 2015/16, despite weak commodity market conditions.
