Comments
Millennium Coal Pty Ltd announced in March 2005 that it reached agreement with BHP Mitsui Coal Pty Ltd to share coal handling
and preparation plant facilities. As part of the arrangements, Millennium Coal Pty Ltd will acquire the Mavis Downs, North Poitrel,
Wotonga, Morambah and Mountain Pit areas from BHP Mitsui Coal Pty Ltd. The company claims that the coal resource contained in
these deposits, when combined with the Millennium deposit, will aggregate to be in excess of 100 million tonnes, that are amenable
to opencut mining.
