Queensland coal production and sales statistics

The Queensland Government publishes coal production and sales statistics from the returns that coal mine operators lodge with the department responsible for resources. Two releases are kept here. The coal industry review tables are by financial year from FY2010 and name each mine. The annual coal statistics are by calendar year from 2010 and give state totals, with export tonnes and sales values by destination country.

The publisher notes that the figures may be revised as operators lodge new or corrected returns, so a later release can change earlier years.

Department of Natural Resources and Mines, Manufacturing and Regional and Rural Development releases these 4 tables as one dataset on its portal, so every table here shares the version date 2026-09-17. Each table has its own page with a format picker, a field list, a sample record and its version history.

Also called: Queensland annual coal production totals, Queensland annual coal statistics export by destination, Queensland coal export destinations by mine, Queensland coal exports by country and financial year, Queensland coal industry review statistical tables, Queensland coal mine output by financial year, Queensland coal sales by country, Queensland coking and thermal coal output by year, Saleable coal production by mine Queensland, Value of Queensland coal exports by country, Where Queensland coal is exported.
