We’re a neighbour before we’re an employer.
Our people live in Moranbah, Dysart, Emerald and Mackay. The land we disturb is land their kids will inherit. That shapes how we plan a pit, not just how we close one.
Four things we’re measured on.
Water
Site water balances are modelled annually and mine-affected water is held and reused on site. Releases happen only under the conditions of our environmental authority, and every release is reported.
Dust & noise
Continuous monitors sit between our pits and the nearest residences. Blast schedules and haul road watering are adjusted on forecast wind, and neighbours can reach a duty number any hour.
Progressive rehabilitation
We rehabilitate as we go rather than banking it for closure. Each site carries an approved plan with milestones, and financial provisioning is lodged against them.
Emissions
Fugitive methane at Mundoo Range is drained and flared, and our diesel fleet is being progressively replaced with lower-emission units as it reaches end of life.
The money stays in the region.
We hire residentially wherever the roster allows, and we buy from Central Queensland businesses when they can do the work. It isn’t charity — local suppliers turn up faster and our crews stay longer.

Rehabilitated to date
Where we put our support.
Trade scholarships
Twelve funded apprenticeship places a year across diesel fitting, electrical and boilermaking, held for school leavers from Isaac and Central Highlands schools.
Traditional Owner engagement
Cultural heritage management agreements are in place for each tenement, with site clearance surveys conducted before any new ground disturbance.
Emergency services
Equipment funding and paid release time for volunteer firefighters and SES members on our crews. Our mines rescue team supports the regional network.
Local sport & health
Multi-year sponsorship of junior clubs in Moranbah and Dysart, plus a standing contribution to rural mental health services across the basin.
