Moura Mine

Producing 6.0Mtpa (50/50 metallurgical coal and thermal coal), the current Moura joint venture was established in July 2002, following Mitsui’s pre-emptive rights purchase from Coal and Allied of its 55% interest in the mining operation. Anglo Coal acquired a 51% share of the mine following agreement with Mitsui on an exchange in equity in other coal mining projects. Since 1996 Moura has been commercially extracting coal bed methane, which is piped into the State gas pipeline, enabling Moura to utilise its underground coal resources.
