Dated versions never change. ## Query The query API returns only the rows you ask for, as JSON, NDJSON or CSV, from the same typed rows as the files. It needs no key. Rows: https://publicdata.au/api/v1/datasets/qld-coal-production-by-mine/rows. Counts and sums: https://publicdata.au/api/v1/datasets/qld-coal-production-by-mine/aggregate. - Rows: https://publicdata.au/api/v1/datasets/qld-coal-production-by-mine/rows?financial_year=eq.FY2026&limit=5 - Aggregate: https://publicdata.au/api/v1/datasets/qld-coal-production-by-mine/aggregate?group=mine&metric=sum.net_output&financial_year=eq.FY2026 Each filter is `field=operator.value` in the query string, and every filter must match. A number or date field compares as a number or date, and a text field compares as text. Values are case-sensitive except with `ilike`. Prefix `not.` to negate a filter, as `not.eq.value`. Operators: `eq.value`, `neq.value`, `gt.value`, `gte.value`, `lt.value`, `lte.value`, `like.*text*`, `ilike.*text*`, `in.(a,b,c)`, `is.null`. - `select`: Fields to return, comma-separated. Every field when absent. - `order`: `field.asc` or `field.desc`, comma-separated. The publisher's row order when absent. - `limit`: Rows per page, 1 to 10,000. 100 when absent. - `offset`: Rows to skip. The `next` URL in each answer sets it for you. - `group`: On `aggregate`, fields to group by, comma-separated. - `metric`: On `aggregate`, `count`, `sum.field`, `avg.field`, `min.field` or `max.field`, comma-separated. `count` when absent. - `format`: `json`, `ndjson` or `csv`. JSON carries the provenance header, and the others carry it in response headers. Without a version the API answers from the newest loaded version, and that answer changes when the publisher releases again. Put `versions//` before `rows` or `aggregate` for an answer that never changes. `/api/v1/datasets//versions` lists the loaded versions. The API allows 60 requests in 10 seconds from one address. Above that it answers 429 for 10 seconds with a `Retry-After` header, a `RateLimit-Policy` header and a JSON body that gives the limit. Every API answer carries the same `RateLimit-Policy`. A client should wait the `Retry-After` seconds, or read the files, which have no limit.

Open https://publicdata.au/d/qld-coal-production-by-mine/latest/data.csv. It redirects to the newest dated version, which is https://publicdata.au/d/qld-coal-production-by-mine/v/2026-09-17/data.csv today. The same path serves Excel, JSON, Parquet, SQLite, DuckDB, NDJSON, Arrow. A dated URL never changes, so use it when the file must stay the same. ### Can I open Coal production by mine in Excel? Yes. https://publicdata.au/d/qld-coal-production-by-mine/v/2026-09-17/data.xlsx is a workbook with the 2,803 rows on a records sheet, the field list on a second sheet and the provenance on a third. The CSV also opens in Excel. https://publicdata.au/d/qld-coal-production-by-mine/v/2026-09-17/data.csv.gz is the CSV at about a tenth of the size. ### What years does Coal production by mine cover? The current version covers the years since 2009. Each release from Natural Resources and Mines becomes a new dated version here, and earlier versions stay online. ### How often is Coal production by mine updated? Natural Resources and Mines releases it several times a year. This site checks the portal every week and adds a dated version when the file changes. ### Can I use Coal production by mine commercially? Yes. CC BY 4.0 allows commercial use, redistribution and derived works as long as the attribution is kept. The attribution string is in this page's side column and inside every file. ### Is this the official source for Coal production by mine? No. The publisher is Department of Natural Resources and Mines, Manufacturing and Regional and Rural Development, and its page is https://www.data.qld.gov.au/dataset/coal-industry-review-statistical-tables. This site republishes the publisher's file without changing its content. The original sits beside every version as source.xlsx with its SHA-256, so the two can be compared. ### How do I get only the rows for one financial year? Every version has one JSON file per value of financial_year, 17 files in the current version, listed with row counts at https://publicdata.au/d/qld-coal-production-by-mine/v/2026-09-17/by/financial_year/index.json. For example https://publicdata.au/d/qld-coal-production-by-mine/v/2026-09-17/by/financial_year/fy2024.json holds the 203 rows where financial_year is FY2024. ### What is in each row? Each row is one mine, one financial year and one coal type or activity, with the tonnes of discards, gross raw feed, gross raw output and net output the operator reported. ### What is net output? Net output is the saleable coal a mine produced after washing, in tonnes. Gross raw output is the coal mined before processing. A row usually carries a figure in only some of the four columns, and the rest are zero as published. ### Is the latest financial year complete? The publisher updates the tables during the year, so the newest financial year can be part of a year. The title row of the workbook gives the month it was updated. ## What this site did to the data Cells were typed, headers were renamed to snake_case and the encoding was made UTF-8. Rows were left alone. Nothing is derived. The publisher's file is beside every version as `source.xlsx`. ## Improve this dataset This page is built from [register/qld-coal-production-by-mine.yaml](https://github.com/National-Digital/publicdata.au/blob/main/register/qld-coal-production-by-mine.yaml) on GitHub, and a fix to it is welcome as a pull request. https://publicdata.au/contribute/ explains how.
