What is the West MuswellbrookExploration Project?Idemitsu Australia Resources, Muswellbrook Coal Company (MCC), is seeking to continue its operations in the Upper Hunter region of New South Wales.
The West Muswellbrook Exploration Project commenced in 2009, when MCC was granted Assessment Lease 19 (AL 19) by the New South Wales Government over 8,101 hectares of land located18 kilometres west of Muswellbrook.
