Anglo aims high with Grosvenor approval

摘要

ANGLO American plc has approved development of the 5Mt/y Grosvenor project in Queensland's Bowen Basin, as part of a plan to triple metallurgical-coal production from its Australian assets by 2020. The group said the 1.7 billion US dollars coking-coal project formed a major part of its expansion plan, and would use conventional longwall mining methods, and existing coal-handling and preparation facilities.
