About Poitrel Mine:
Poitrel is an established and successful open-cut coal mine located 35 kilometres east of Moranbah in Queensland and is owned by Stanmore Resources. The mine produced first coal in 2006 and has access to high-quality infrastructure, producing a mix of hard coking coal (HCC) and pulverised coal injection (PCI) coals for export to overseas customers, including in Asia and Europe.
Poitrel has a mine life in excess of 10 years, and in FY21 produced 3.9Mt of coals, comprising approximately 65% HCC and 35% PCI.
Stanmore Resources acquired BHP’s 80% interest in BMC in May 2022, becoming the operator of Poitrel.
