While BMA has contact to a number of existing and prospective coal resources in the Bowen Basin, the Red Hill Mining Lease Project supply has been recognized for future expansion on the basis that:
• Broadmeadow panels are to extend into MLA70421. High quality product coking coal exists within the projected panel postponements. Without the statutory approvals and transformation of tenure, mining cannot start or extend across into MLA70421.
• The resource is a high quality resource that will meet existing and expected future market demand.
The Red Hill Mining Lease as shown in Figure 1 is located adjacent to the existing Goonyella Riverside and Broadmeadow (GRB) mine complex in the Bowen Basin, about 135 kilometres south-west of Mackay and 20 kilometres north of Moranbah, Queensland.

• A future Red Hill Mine (RHM) underground expansion selection located to the east of the GRM complex.
The three project elements defined above are collectively mentioned to as ‘the project’.
The project is of strategic importance to the planning and improvement of existing operations within and about the existing GRB mine complex. It is projected that development work for mining of panels 14, 15 and 16 related with the BRM will commence in Financial Year 2016. The mining of the Broadmeadow extension will utilise existing mine organization and extend the life of mine by around one year.
The GRM incremental development option refers to those project undertakings which are located within the existing GRB mine complex and connected with the proposed RHM underground expansion option.
Timeframes for distribution of the GRM project components will be subject to the last timing for beginning, the rate of expansion and scale of future manufacture for the RHM underground expansion option once determined by the project
The process to mine the coal is quite complex. First, surveyors are called on site to document the layout of the land so that in can be restored to

Huntley and Avondale Collieries are existing underground mines in the Illawarra coal fields of New South Wales. Both mines are on care and maintenance at present but with an improved financial outlook, the existing infrastructure and the location of the mines in relation existing coal mining infrastructure, an opportunity to reopen the mines is available. A financial model for the reopening of the mines based on provided economic conditions, historical
This is to ensure that the necessary raw materials and physical resources are available at each stage, and that the workforce on site has the right skills for the scheduled work.

Coal power is the cheapest fuel to power the ever growing population with Australian mining industry still putting in billions of dollars into a vast amount of coal projects never the less coal power is a fossil fuel, a fuel which takes hundreds of year to form so the future of coal is undetermined. Coal is a reliable power source but one of the many concern with coal is the mining process used to remove it from the ground. Ecological effects are developing worries for the industry, with the carbon emissions possibly contributing to global warming.
Meaning, no one can take what is under your land without your consent. Geologist, Hobart King refers to this as, “fee simple estate”. If you have a fee simple estate or just own mineral rights you can sell or lease them to a company who would like to extract the minerals underground. The company will ask to lease the mineral rights, and potentially lease or buy the land above the mineral deposit. This depends whether they want to place the drill on location or horizontally drill from another location. Leasing the minerals is indubitably the preferred route for both parties, so from here on out we will only refer to it. They will offer a lump sum for the mineral rights. According to Blackbeard Data, usually “ $200-$500 per acre.” for the amount of land that is over the minerals and they are also entitled to royalties for the minerals. In most states, the very minimum the company can offer is 12.5% of the money they make, but this is usually at 20%.
