The surface geology of the HVO, MTW and Ashton coal leases is dominated by outcrops of the Jerry’s Plains and Vane Subgroups which form the Whittingham Coal Measures. The main rock types of this subgroup include sandstone, siltstone and conglomerate, which occur with subordinate coal and tuffaceous claystone.HVO is located on the asymmetric southerly plunging Bayswater Syncline. The Auckland area is located on the western flank of the Camberwell Anticline and dips more steeply than the western limb of the Bayswater Syncline. The West Pit is located on the eastern flank of the Muswellbrook Anticline. The Barrett seam outcrops in the east of the Auckland area on the Camberwell Anticline.The sedimentary pile in the Sydney Basin has asymmetrical thickness distribution. The thickest accumulations are along the easterly-dipping Hunter-Mooki Thrust Fault System suggesting that subsidence was greatest along that fault. The sedimentary sequence thins to the west due to the sediments onlapping into the basement rocks in the west. The Hunter Coalfield is a district- scale north-eastern subdivision of the Sydney Basin. The Permian coal bearing stratigraphic section occurs within the Whittingham Coal Measures.
