Information
Yancoal is a leading low-cost Australian coal producer in the global seaborne market, producing a mix of premium thermal, semi-soft coking and PCI coals for export. Since 2004, Yancoal has built its business through strategic acquisitions; now owning, operating or participating in 11 coal mines across NSW, Queensland and Western Australia. In 2020, Yancoal anticipates producing around 38 million
tonnes of saleable coal. In 2019, Yancoal’s thermal coal exports would have powered around 30 million households in the region (this equates to one year of electricity production in Australia).
The company’s Mount Thorley Warkworth (MTW) complex in the Upper Hunter Valley region of NSW supplies international and domestic markets with semi-soft coking coal and thermal coal. With a strong commitment to continued strategic growth and maximising new opportunities, Yancoal has a strong focus on implementing operational efficiencies across all mine sites while reducing costs.
