Drummond resumes coal exports from Colombia

US mining company Drummond has resumed coal exports from Colombia, ending a three-month suspension ordered by the government after a 500-ton shipment sank in the Caribbean.

The company said Monday it had resumed shipments after a $350 million dollar upgrade of its Caribbean port facility in northern Colombia.

Drummond is Colombia's second largest coal producer, according to 2012 statistics.
