This document summarizes MPX Colombia's integrated mining system business plan. The plan involves developing world-class coal mining assets in Colombia with over 1.74 billion tons of potential resources. MPX will operate 4 mines ramping up to a total production capacity of 20 million tons per year by 2021. It will also develop port and railroad infrastructure to efficiently transport coal. The total planned capex is $1.906 billion, with 70-75% expected to be debt financed and the remainder through cash generation and equity financing.
