"BHP Billiton Metallurgical Coal is the largest global supplier of seaborne traded hard coking coal....Production is from our low cost asset base located in Queensland (predominantly open cut mines owned in an alliance with Mitsubishi Corporation) and New South Wales (100 per cent owned underground operations)."
