Australia to coal as the energy structure, coal accounts for 70% of production, energy Australia one of energy consumption by 44.1%. 1983/84 of the coal exports more than the United States, Australia, to become the world's largest coal exporter, still keep the position. 1995/96 annual production of 291 million t, Australian coal, ranked sixth largest coal producer.

The Australian coal resources is extremely rich, recoverable coal reserves of 90.94 billion t, of the world total reserves of coal mining can be 8.8%, among which anthracite and bituminous coal reserves are 45.34 Gt, times and bituminous coal lignite recoverable reserves 45.6 Gt, behind America and China after the third row of the world. The Australian coal reserves available for mining in 364, the per capita recoverable reserves 5038.2 t, the two indexes all over the world the first. Australia mainly has: coal, coal BaoEn Sydney coalfield lor, cuckoo, and coal.Jig separators

Australia's coal and coal origin in the eastern Pacific coast main awarded 200 km within the scope of the series of basin. High quality coking coal are mainly distributed in the new south wales and Queensland Sydney coalfield BaoEn coal field and clarence-Moore, coal field. Times are mainly distributed in the bituminous coal south Australia and western Australia. The lignite mainly distributed in Victoria.Jig concentrators

Victoria lignite, main production for domestic power all lignite. At present, the four total coal mining area of 67.4 million t, the production of the lignite supply Victoria 6 a coal-fired power stations, the total installed capacity of 6310 MW power station. Australia YingMei tune of 20314 MW, the lignite tune of 6310 MW. Domestic coal production (YingMei lignite) provide 62% of Australia and the power demand. 2001-the 2002 fiscal year, only YingMei Queensland gross regional product of $8.74 billion.

Australia bituminous coal resources

Australia and the northern territory have bituminous coal states. Eight points and KunZhou have high bituminous coal. Bituminous coal for power generation in Australia, it is a part of the main for coke and other industrial fuel.

According to the appraisal in 2002, Australia had the game again with economic values has proven bituminous coal resources 57.5 Gt, recoverable of bituminous coal resources 39.7 Gt. Recoverable of bituminous coal resources according to the existing production estimated mining 100 years. Bituminous coal resources mainly concentrated in the KunZhou (62%) and eight points (34.2%). According to Australian earth science agencies estimate about nearly 50% of bituminous coal resources can open mining, 36% of bituminous coal has the quality of coke.and Gold mineral jig

In addition, Australia also has implied In situ-present (inferred resources) bituminous coal resources 84.7 Gt and implied recoverable (recoverable resources) bituminous coal resources inferred 22 Mt.
