The Bowen Basin contains much of the known Permian coal resources in Queensland, including virtually all of the known mineable prime coking coal. Coal accumulation in the Bowen Basin occurred in a wide variety of depositional environments and the coal measures reflect this diversity, with variation in seam thickness, lateral continuity and coal quality.Coal-bearing strata occur within several geological formations in the Bowen Basin. Deposits of economic importance are restricted to four groups, ranging from Early Permian (Group I) to Late Permian (Group IV) in age. IV Late Permian.This is the most diverse group in terms of coal quality and also the most widely distributed within the basin. Although the rank and quality of Group IV coals vary greatly, they are characterised by their comparatively greatly, they are characterised by their comparatively low levels of sulphur. They are of major economic importance as a source of both metallurgical and thermal coals (Mines: Newlands, Eastern Creek, Suttor Creek).III Late PermianGroup III coals include major deposits of high grade coking coal, which are mined by open-cut (Wollombi).
