on the back of a solid production performance in FY21. The investment and

have put Wescoal on track to produce the 8mtpa of ROM which we have been
targeting since 2019. As we enter the second half of the financial year, our
key focus will be on maintaining profitability to get the group back in the
green in FY22."
