介绍了新一轮煤炭价格下跌的基本情况，总结了下跌的主要原因。从需求侧和供应侧两个方面分析了下半年煤炭市场走势，预计煤炭供大于求的阶段性特征仍将延续，价格将继续探底。针对煤炭行业发展态势及问题，从加强企业财务成本管理、促进煤炭综合开发利用、提高煤炭产业集中度、清理不合理税费等方面提出了对策。

2013年，我国宏观经济延续了上年的小幅放缓走势，尽管经济增速保持在合理区间，但下行压力较大。受此影响，煤炭市场需求极度疲软，而煤炭产能快速释放、产能过剩已成为常态，进口量也在不断增加，严重冲击国内市场，恶化了我国煤炭销售市场环境，加剧了煤炭低价竞争局面。市场整体呈现出供需宽松、结构性过剩的明显特点，导致包括产地、港口和下游耗煤企业的全产业链各环节库存维持高位，市场景气程度持续偏冷，价格大幅下跌，行业利润快速下滑，煤炭企业经营面临前所未有的困难，不得不减产、限产。

Mining chemicals are specialty chemicals that are used for the mining of explosive and drilling chemicals, mineral processing, water & waste treatment, and other applications. Some of the major mining chemicals that are widely used are ammonium nitrate, petroleum distillate, sulfosuccinate surfactant, alkyl xanthate salt, and alkyl aryl oxime. Mining chemicals are used in different types of mining process, such as coal mining, as well as metal and mineral ore mining. Explosives and drilling is the largest application area for mining chemicals. Moreover, coal mining is the major end-user industry for explosive and drilling chemicals. Mineral processing is the second largest application area for the mining of chemical products. Iron ore, copper ore, and other mineral ores are the major end-users for these chemicals. Finally, mining chemicals are also widely used for water and waste treatment purposes.

Mining Finance is one of the major segments of the Financial industry. The Mining sector has largely been financed by way of equity financing. However, there are other modes of financing that are gaining popularity such as debt financing and alternative financing. Each of the sources has a certain level of risk and flexibility attached to it.

美国是全球页岩气产业最为发达的国家。美国的经验证明，丰富的资源、先进的技术以及完善的政策体系是页岩气产业大发展的关键要素。特别是在发展初期，产业政策的功能尤为重要和突出。在政策的驱动下，美国的资源评价取得了重要突破，技术研发取得了重要进展，实现了页岩气产量大幅提升。经过长期的发展和积累，如今美国的页岩气产业政策体系已经非常齐备和成熟。当前我国页岩气产业处于起步阶段，借鉴美国经验，在做好资源评价和技术研发的基础上，加快制定和完善符合我国国情的页岩气产业政策具有重要的现实意义。
