Deposit Type

  • Sedimentary


Summary:

The coal occurs in two seams; the Leichhardt averaging 3.2m thick and Vermont averaging 5.6m thick, along a strike length of more than 8km. The seams sub crops at a depth of 30 metres and dips gently to the east separated by an average of 32 metres of waste material. Both seams produce high quality hard coking coal and PCI coal after processing.


Mining Methods

  • Truck & Shovel / Loader


Summary:

The mine is open cut with Jellinbah Group appointing Thiess Mining as the operator of the mine.

A favourable strip ratio and generous seam thickness means that Lake Vermont Mine is a highly productive mine.

Overburden drilling and blasting is followed by conventional removal with truck and shovel and dozer push.

After mining, careful reshaping and rehabilitation of the spoil dumps is conducted and the site recovered with top soil and seeded. The mine operates in full compliance with Queensland Government environmental procedures which control levels of noise, dust, water quality, overburden rehabilitation etc.

Thiess has mobilised a second Epiroc Pit Viper 275 drill fitted with an autonomous drilling system at Bowen Basin Coal’s Lake Vermont project in Queensland.

Thiess will continue to provide full-service mining operations at Lake Vermont, including a push for autonomous drilling and dozers as it extends its contract at the site by five years from 1 January 2022.

As part of this offering, the company will introduce a third Epiroc Pit Viper 275 to Lake Vermont later this year.

Reserves at December 31, 2022:
The Lake Vermont Mining Lease contains resources of more than 200 million tonnes of in-situ coal, all suitable for mining by open cut methods.

On adjoining mineral development leases and exploration permits, Lake Vermont has defined additional resources of more than 400 million tonnes of in-situ coal. With more exploration work in these tenements this figure is expected to grow substantially.
