TBAR Drilling Area
This exploration will provide the information required to undertake initial mine planning for TBAR. It will be the first of several drilling programmes to delineate the TBAR coal seams as part of a comprehensive deposit evaluation.
The coal haul road from BBM to the jetty at Bumban passes through the TBAR deposit. This will facilitate the logistics of mine development and operation with a 75km haul road from TBAR to jetty already being in place.
Cokal Chairman, Mr Domenic Martino said:
“ Cokal is pleased to commence drilling on this very prospective project . Due to the proximity , next door to BBM, and the prospectivity of TBAR evidenced in our earlier exploration of TBAR the possible delineation of a commercial resource at TBAR will increase the opportunity for early expansion of production well beyond the production profile that Cokal has planned for BBM. This is an exciting development, following closely on the full funding and development of its BBM deposit.”
