DUBLIN--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/d15ff6/indonesia_mining_r) has announced the addition of the "Indonesia Mining Report Q1 2012" report to their offering.

Indonesia's mining industry value is expected to reach US$147bn in real terms by 2015, almost double that of 2010. The country will remain a dominant player in the coal and tin mining industries given the country's position as the largest global exporter in both commodities. Coal mining will continue to drive growth in the industry given the aggressive expansion and acquisition plans of the coal miners in the country. Indeed, coal production is expected to reach 816mnt by 2015, an annual average growth of 17.8% from 2010 levels. Nickel and bauxite mining will see growth in refining capacities given the impending 2014 export ban.

Business Monitor International's Indonesia Mining Report provides industry professionals and strategists, corporate analysts, mining associations, government departments and regulatory bodies with independent forecasts and competitive intelligence on Indonesia's mining industry.

Positive regulatory developments in recent years include the passage of the 2009 Mining Law, which streamlines and improves upon the 1967 Mining Law. However, key implementation guidelines with reference to benchmark pricing and asset divestment procedures have yet to be announced, which is a source of uncertainty for investors.

Foreign investments into Indonesia are expected to remain strong in the coming years. In the South East Asia region, Indonesia remains the top place for new mining projects, followed by the Philippines and Vietnam. A large number of these are green field and brown field exploration projects for coal and copper-gold prospects.
