Jizhong Energy Fengfeng Group, an energy company based in the northeastern Chinese province of Hebei, has signed a framework agreement with Chinese steel giant Baosteel to develop Cixi coal mine in Hebei.
The Cixi mine district is located in western Handan city, Hebei, covering a total area of 100.89 square kilometers and with 1.53 billion mt of coal reserves.
