Australia coal producer Kangaroo Resources has commenced mining at the Mamahak coking coal project in Indonesia just six weeks after acquiring an 85% interest in the project.
Kangaroo was targeting initial production from the mine of up to 30 000 tonnes of coal per month.
“The speed with which we have been able to turn around Mamahak into an operational coal mine is testament to our Indonesian partners’ strengths and abilities, and the overall value perceived within this coking coal project,” said MD Mark O’Keeffe.
Kangaroo acquired the Mamahak project as part of a portfolio of Indonesian mining interests purchased from South Gobi Energy Resources in December 2009.
Mamahak includes a resource of 10.22-million tons of coking coal, an extensive infrastructure capable of supporting up to 1.5-million tons of coal production and a large 30 000 tonne coking coal stockpile ready for shipping.
