Mt Arthur Coal is currently undergoing an expansion

Mt Arthur Coal is currently undergoing an expansion from 15 to 20 million tonnes of coal per annum. The deposit offers the challenge of operating in a multi-seam, steeply dipping environment. Ongoing expansion in a complex environment offers outstanding candidates the ability to develop professionally in a variety of roles.
