Chinese buy Gympie's coal asset
Tuesday, October 12, 2004
FAILED miner Gympie Gold's Southland coal operations in the Hunter Valley have been snapped up by Chinese company Yanzhou Coal Mining Co for US$23 million.
Media reports said Yanzhou would spend more than $100 million redeveloping the coking coalmine to around 2 million tonnes per annum capacity. The Chinese company is believed to currently produce around 40 million tonnes per annum.
Gympie went into voluntary administration and receivership after fire ravaged the colliery in December 2003.
The sale of the colliery to Yanzhou is expected to take six to eight weeks to complete.
