Asian Metal visits Jingfu Coal Chemical
On the morning of December 24th, 2025, Ms. Daphne Zhang, Consultant & Senior Product Manager of Magnesium Market at Asian Metal, visited Fugu Jingfu Coal Chemical Co., Ltd., where she held in-depth discussions with Mr. Dong Shi, General Manager, Mr. Wei Liu, Sales Director, and Mr. Daoyi Zhou, Sales Supervisor, on the current supply-demand situation of the magnesium market and trends for 2026. Mr. Dong Shi noted that a new round of equipment upgrading is imminent, requiring substantial investment and long-term commitment for primary magnesium plants. Coupled with the current price inversion and severe sluggishness in the semi-coke market, losses among magnesium producers have widened. Nevertheless, he expressed firm confidence that after enduring this phase of cyclical pain, the industry will usher in a broader wave of application expansion and development.

The integrated project forms a closed-loop system in which washed coal produces semi-coke, semi-coke is used to produce ferrosilicon, coke oven gas is utilized for magnesium smelting and power generation, blast furnace off-gas from ferrosilicon is used for waste heat power generation, magnesium slag and coke fines are used to produce non-fired bricks, and electricity is supplied to all production units. The production of semi-coke, ferrosilicon, primary magnesium, and coal tar has passed ISO 9001 quality management system certification. To further enhance competitiveness, the company plans to advance the reutilization of magnesium slag and build a resource-saving and environmentally friendly enterprise.
