During 2009, world production of coal and lignite increased steadily by 2%

. Production slowed down in several producing countries in

Latin America (-4.5%) and CIS countries (-8.4%)

. On the opposite,

China, the world's largest producer (40% of the total), posted a substantial increase in production

(+9% compared to +4% in 2008) while Indian output rose by 7.8%. Asia represented a growing part of world output, with 56% of total production in 2009. Australia also contributed to the increase at the world level since its coal production grew by 3.2% during 2009. OECD production (30% of the world output) was scaled down severely by 5.2%: the US production shrank by 8.5% while coal production reduced in all the European countries (-5.2% on average).
