Morning Bees, thanks again for pointing out the value in developing this deposit, but it's not just the coal.
-- There is an interesting component to the proposed mine which is often missed, and that is, the overburden includes extremely large quantities of: construction sand, Kaolin, aggregates, clay, silica sand, as well as construction rocks such as Granite, sandstone and Til lite. The total of these materials is in the billions of tonnes. The availability of these materials is expected to spawn new industries in the area, including pottery, bricks, construction, ceramics and glass.---and of course we cannot forget the revenue coming from the sale of the electricity itself.

-So, so much more than just the coal.
