SCALE Tenements exceeding 24,000sqkm in the Surat, Galilee, Eromanga and Bowen Basins

SELECTIVE

Coal tenements selected on the basis of historical waterbore drilling logs that displayed coal intersections

EARLY SUCCESS

Repeated, significant, shallow coal intersections over 26km of strike in drilling in Blackall Project

SUCCESSFUL

TEAM

A proven team of explorers and developers of early stage coal projects, with world-leading coal geology consultants

UPSIDE

Large upside potential from exploration and strategic acquisition targets

PROVEN AND SECURE REGION

All COALBANK projects neighbour producing or proven coal assets

96% of COALBANK’s coal exploration areas lie outside the Strategic Cropping Land Protection Areas

MAIDEN JORC

RESOURCE

IMMINENT

East Surat and Bowen Basin Projects

Three Eastern Queensland projects all close to major coal deposits, rail infrastructure and ports

EPC 2241 - Biloela South

  • 20km south of Callide Mine

  • 40km west of proposed Monto Mine

EPCA 2239 - Coal Creek

  • 45km south east of Meandu Mine

  • 55km north of Jeebropilly Mine

EPC 2240 & EPCA 2359 - Coalbank South

15km east of New Acland Mine

All have coal intersections at shallow depths reported in the waterbore logs eg. 24.4 metres of coal in EPCA2239

Geographical diversity should mitigate the impact of adverse weather within the combined portfolio
