Steelmaking and thermal coal
We are one of the world's largest producers and exporters of seaborne traded thermal and steelmaking coal.
Coal is an important part of our global commodity portfolio and we are focused on running a profitable business in a safe, efficient, responsible and sustainable manner.
Our coal is used in power generation, steel making and industrial processes including the manufacturing of cement, aluminium and nickel.
We complement our own production with agency third party and traded volumes to help ensure our customers get the quantities and qualities of coal they require in a secure, reliable and timely manner.
