Yevgeny Mikhel, Mechel’s CEO, commented on the company’s 9M 2010 operational results: “We started out this year with rapid production growth, and so far have managed to maintain this pace. Beginning from the second quarter of 2010 our coal production has steadily exceeded pre-crisis levels. Overall, our coking coal concentrate production increased by 66% compared to the same period of 2009. Output of coal for steel production has grown by 262%.

The company’s steel division has performed well increasing output of raw steel, rolled steel and high value added products. Compared to the same period of the previous year, raw steel production has grown by 13%, rolled steel – by 18% and hardware output increased by more than one-third.

Our ferroalloys production is growing gradually. The market conditions are still favorable, and we do our best to meet the existing demand.

We have done a substantial amount of work to renovate and modernize our production facilities and feel optimistic about achieving production growth targets in the core sectors of our business.”
