Synopsis


The report provides top-level market analysis, information and insights into the Australian coal mining industry including:

- Overview of Australian coal mining industry

- Detailed analysis of market covering the regulatory frameworks 

- Detailed production figures for a period of ten years (2007–2016) 

- Detailed imports and exports figures for key minerals for a period of five years (2006–2010) 

- Description and analysis of the competitive landscape


Summary


Coal is important to the Australian economy, as it is the country’s second-largest exported commodity. In addition, black coal exports have increased by more than XX% in the country since 2002. Australia is the fourth-largest coal producer in the world, trailing only China, the USA and India. However, Australia is the world’s largest coal exporter. The total production of coal Australia totaled XX million tons in 2011. There are new challenges for the country’s coal production following the introduction of Australia’s carbon tax, which was passed in November 2011 and is scheduled to become effective from July 2012. This carbon tax law represents one of the largest economic reforms in this country for a generation and a huge challenge to the coal mining category. As a result of this tax, coal mining will become the country’s highest taxed mining category. Consequently, BRICdata projects a XX–XX% increase in Australian coal prices over the forecast period.
