TIARO COAL PROJECT
The Tiaro Coal tenements covering an
area of approximately 2.200 square kilometres are located in south
eastern Queensland between Maryborough and Gympie.
The TJV provides the opportunity for
significant value to be created through the identification of a
metallurgical coal resource.

Key features of the Tiaro Project are as
follows:
The exploration of the coalfield is at
an early stage. Drilling is not yet extensive enough to support
resources estimated in accordance with the JORC code, and no
commercially saleable coal has yet been discovered. Despite this, the
understanding of the geology of the measures has been significantly
improved by the recent drilling campaign and new geophysical data which
has become available and firm targets for further exploration have been
identified.
The result of this combination of
factors is the potential for large new coal resources to be discovered
from known, but poorly explored intersections with the aid of
geophysical data which has only recently become available.
Historical drilling has been
concentrated around outcrop locations. There is an obvious logical
correlation between structural complexity and outcrop intensity, and
thus the historical drilling has been skewed towards structurally
complex areas. New data provided by recent aeromagnetic and gravity
surveys have revealed less complex blocks within the coalfield which are
expected to provide geologically continuous coal bearing sequences
