Dawson West coal mine

The Dawson West coal project is a proposed thermal coal mine which would lie 20km to the west of the town of Theodore, 80km southeast of Rolleston in southeastern Queensland, Australia.

The coal terminals in the Gladstone region are the likely destination for CMR’s Project export coal.
