Purpose

To provide an indication of price movements of materials used in coal mining.

Description

Samples of representative materials are priced each quarter from companies supplying materials to mine sites. Both underground and open cut mining operations are covered. The point of pricing is delivered on mine site or to the primary storage area for a group of mines.

As far as possible, actual transactions prices are used - that is, the prices actually paid by coal mines to suppliers for materials delivered on mine sites.
