But mining is about much more than just the product we export or how it is
used. The Australian mining sector creates rewarding careers. Mining allows
Australian regional towns to thrive. Mining underpins government budgets and provides people, communities and societies with a future.
Yancoal’s story goes beyond our product. It is about the positive impact we have on people’s lives and livelihoods: trainees getting a foot in the door; the people who serve us our morning coffee on the way to work; the local businesses we support; the environment we regenerate; the communities we nurture; the workplace culture we create; the mateship we foster; and the Australian families that rely on us for a future.
