Yari’s reported coal resource base has increased to more than 500Mt across two complementary projects in the broader Rolleston coal district.
1. Rolleston South boasts a 222.9Mt JORC Coal Resource, including 33.7Mt Indicated.
2. Arcadia Coal Project hosts a reported 282Mt JORC 2012 Mineral Resource.
These projects offer significant upside potential; both are strategically positioned to capitalise on the region’s rich coal-bearing geology, offering substantial opportunities for resource growth and value creation.
Our goal is to maximise capital efficiency while expanding the resource base and assessing the potential for export-quality thermal coal and semi-soft metallurgical applications.
The Rolleston South Coal Project, located in Queensland’s world-class Bowen Basin, represents a significant opportunity for Yari Resources. The project contains a 222.9Mt JORC 2012 Coal Resource, comprising 33.7Mt Indicated and 189.2Mt Inferred Resources.
Strategically positioned approximately 40km from the Blackwater rail system, Rolleston South benefits from established infrastructure, favourable regulations and access to major coal export facilities at the Port of Gladstone.
Yari’s 100% owned Arcadia Coal Project, acquired in 2026, is located nearby our existing Rolleston South Coal Project in Queensland’s coal heartland – the Bowen Basin.
In 2026, an independent coal-quality review of the 282Mt Arcadia Coal Project, conducted by coal-quality specialist Chris McMahon of McMahon Resources, identified potential for semi-soft coking, PCI & high-energy thermal coal.
McMahon Resources reviewed historical data from 44 bore cores and 1,472 samples across the principal B, C and D seams of the Bandanna Formation.
Arcadia’s assessed coal averages approximately 10% in-situ ash, supporting potential raw-coal pathways with beneficiation offering further opportunity to enhance product quality.
This acquisition (100% Yari-owned) increases Yari’s reported coal resource base to more than 500Mt across two complementary projects located nearby each other in the broader Rolleston coal district.
