Geology
The coal seams are contained within the Moranbah Coal Measures
which range in thickness from 250 to 330m and dip gently northeast.
The area contains eight seams which split and coalesce to form up to
16 coal horizons. A small area of the resources is amenable to open
cut extraction. The principal seam is the Goonyella Middle seam with
a thickness of between 4 to 5m.
