1. Description
1.1 Keywords
Coal Mining, Underground, Mining Report, Ground Stability
1.2 Abstract
The Coal Mining Reporting Area, also known as CON29M Coal and Brine Consultation Areas, is the known extent of coal mining activity and is used to determine whether a coal mining report is required for property transactions and the conveyance process.
This area does not represent the full extent of geological coal reserves and resources.
1.3 Purpose
The Coal Mining Reporting Area is used to determine whether a coal mining report is required for property transactions and the conveyance process.
