Background
Vermont East coal project was a coal mine project under consideration by Macarthur Coal in Queensland, Australia. On its website in 2010, the company stated that "initial results confirm the presence of a medium volatile coking coal, a thermal coal and a PCI coal, as inferred from the nearby Lake Vermont Project." It describes the status of the project as "a grassroots prospect currently under the exploration spotlight".[1]
