Mongolia exported 5.7 million tons of coal in the first five months of this year, data released by the Mongolian Customs General Administration showed Thursday.
 
The figure marks an increase of 1.9 million tons from the previous month and a decrease of around 3 million tons from a year ago, it said.
 
Coal is Mongolia's main export commodity.
 
Mongolia has planned to export at least 36 million tons of coal in 2022, according to the authority.
 
The current poor implementation of this year's coal export plan is mainly related to border restrictions due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
 
The Asian country, which is rich in natural resources, exported 15.9 million tons of coal in 2021, down 44.3 percent year on year, according to Mongolian Ministry of Mining and Heavy Industry.
