The world's largest steel producer, ArcelorMittal decided to purchase 300,000 tons less of Polish coke that it had assumed before due to shortages of supplies caused by miners' strike at JSW mines, the company informed the Polish Press Agency on Monday.
"This year, we will buy 300,000 tons of coke less on the local market, compared with what we predicted originally," said Czesław Sikorski, a member of board of mangers at ArcelorMittal Poland.
Polish plants of the producer had to rely on supplies from Australia and the US.
JSW informed the current supplies are being provided in line with deals, and the coke which was not delivered before will be delivered later.
