The Drake Coal Project covers a complete sequence of the Moranbah Coal Measures which reach a maximum thickness of around 480m and comprise cross-bedded lithic sandstone and siltstone, mudstone and coal seams. The Moranbah Coal Measures contain seven economically viable coal seams designated as A (deepest seam), B, C, E, P, P Rider and Q. Coal seams A through Q inclusive would be mined at the Drake Coal Project at various locations. The coal seams subcrop in a north to north-east direction and dip at low angles to the east and southeast. Interburden rocks consist of quartz-poor lithic sandstones, siltstones, shale and mudstones that sub-crop in a north to north-east direction and dip at low angles to the east and south-east.
