Bowen Basin Coal Mines – BBUGS
The Bowen Basin contains the largest coal reserves in Australia This major coal producing region contains one of the world’s largest deposits of bituminous coal The Basin contains much of the known Permian coal resources in Queensland including virtually all of the known mineable prime coking coal It was named for the Bowen River, itself named after Queensland’s first Governor, Sir George BowenThe Saraji openpit coal mine located in the Bowen Basin of Central Queensland is Australia’s fourthbiggest and the world’s tenth biggest coal mine by recoverable coal reserves The multiseam, opencut mine has been producing up to ten million tonnes per annum of highquality metallurgical coal for export markets since 1974 It has been owned and operated by BHP Alliance (BMA), a joint Saraji Coal Mine, Bowen Basin, Queensland, AustraliaThe Bowen Basin, an area rich in coal and gas deposits, extends southwards from Collinsville (near Bowen) to Emerald and Moura (west of Bundaberg) Its area is put at 60,000 to 75,000 sq km, over a length of about 650 km The basin is shaped like an inverted Y: the single stem of the Y runs from Collinsville to Dysart, a land corridor seldom wider than 50 km, where the majority of mines are Bowen Basin Queensland Places
Project Iron Boomerang: Radical plan that could rebuild
Dubbed Project Iron Boomerang, the $100 billion idea is to link the world’s biggest iron ore fields in WA’s Pilbara region with the Bowen Basin coal mines in north Queensland — a distance of more than 3300km The study will examine the feasibility of transporting gas mixed with methane from coal mines from the Bowen Basin along the proposed pipeline route The north Bowen Basin has been regarded as one of three high graded basins for new gas supplies in Australia, according to Stanmore Coal, Blue Energy to capture fugitive coal mine Ironbark No 1 (formerly the Ellensfield coal project), 35km northeast of Moranbah in the Bowen Basin, is an underground greenfield operation with a forecasted 6 million tonne per annum capacity Fitzroy purchased the mine from Vale in November 2016QLD coal mine approval to deliver 350 jobs to Bowen Basin
Queensland coal – mines and advanced projects
The Bowen Basin contains almost all of the State's hard coking coal, and is the most important coalbearing province in Queensland In addition to supplying all of the metallurgical coal currently mined within Queensland, mines operating within the basin also produce a wide range of thermal coal products, principally for export Mines Minister Anthony Lynham has announced new parcels of land for coal exploration in the Bowen Basin Credit: AAP Image/ Jono Searle The bidding companies have to More coal mines on map for Queensland as government calls Gregory Crinum coal mine to reopen in Queensland's Bowen Basin after more than five years ABC Capricornia / By Rachel McGhee Posted Yesterday at 8:23pm Gregory Crinum coal mine to reopen in Queensland's Bowen

The Bowen Basin also has vast coal resources, with major open cut and underground coal mines in the north of the basin Large volumes of methane gas are held at shallow depths within Permian coals in the north and has potential for coal seam methane developments One of the latest projects to join the approval process, Pembroke Olive Downs proposed to develop an open cut mine in the Bowen Basin The project will yield 15 million tonnes of coal per annum for steel production, handling and crushing facilities, rail infrastructure, as well as water and power supply8 future Queensland coal mines after Adani Cormac ConsultingNew projects in the Bowen Basin THERE are 34 coal mines operating in the Bowen Basin, an area responsible for approximately 85% of Queenslands coal production with an overall resource of some 28 billion tonnes of coalNew projects in the Bowen Basin MiningMonthly

New $15 billion Glencore coal mining project Bowen Basin
A $15 billion coal mining project in central Queensland’s Bowen Basin, which could provide up to 2350 jobs, is a step closer to being realised Queensland Treasurer Cameron Dick said the new Valeria coal mine could deliver 1400 construction jobs and 950 ongoing jobs once operational after it was declared a coordinated project by Queensland’s independent CoordinatorGeneralBowen basin coal seams have been extensively drilled, with over 500 wells Annual gas production from this basin is estimated at 100 BCF which is about 90% of total Australian CBM production Vertical drilling and hydrofracking is unlikely to be very productive in the Bowen basin because of its shallow depth Horizontal drilling from the surface is the best technique to produce gas from these Bowen Basin an overview ScienceDirect TopicsThe basin had 48 operational coal mines in August 2011 In mid 2011, evidence of a continuing mining boom was provided by state government figures which showed more than 50 mining projects are under consideration in the Bowen Basin The Goonyella railway line is the main route for exports of coal via Dalrymple Bay and Hay Point Exports are also sent via the Port of Gladstone Rio Tinto Coal Bowen Basin Hunter Valley Coal Mines BOHOGS – Bowen
