The company serves as the Australian coal operations platform for Yankuang Energy Group. Since its establishment in 2004, through a series of strategic acquisitions, capacity integration, and capital operations, it has developed into a leading Australian coal producer with leading advantages in both cost and output in eastern Australia. It is the largest pure-play coal producer in Australia, with its attributable salable coal output in 2025 accounting for 8.7% of Australia's total production.

Huatai Securities previously stated that it is optimistic about the company benefiting from a new price cycle for Australian coal in 2026, catalyzed by the "US-Israel-Iran conflict," which is expected to fully realize its earnings potential.
