The company mines thermal coal, which is burned in power stations to generate electricity, and metallurgical coal, which is used in steelmaking. Its customers are mainly electricity generators, steel producers and trading houses, and much of its coal is exported from Australian ports to markets in Asia, including Japan, Korea and Taiwan.

Our dividend records, which start in 2019, show payments in 7 different calendar years.
