292. It appears that rail capacity in both the Goonyella and Blackwater corridors in<br />
Queensland will lag behind notional port capacities in 2007 and 2008. There is also<br />
uncertainty about the achievement in practice of some of the above headline capacities.<br />
Interest in additional infrastructure development – notably the proposed new Wiggins<br />
Island port terminal and railway project in the southern Bowen Basin, and the Northern<br />
Missing Link rail and Abbott Point expansion project in the Northern Bowen Basin – mat<br />
well build during the course of 2007/08.<br />
Japan<br />
293. Over the last year, Japan has continued to increase its investment in overseas coal<br />
supply, mostly but not exclusively in Australia. These investments include several<br />
projects that will increase coal supply (see section 3.1 “Company Developments” for<br />
details).<br />
South Africa<br />
294. The participants in the expansion of RBCT from 72 million tonnes capacity per annum to<br />
91 million tonnes have been selected and are:<br />
• South Dunes Coal Terminal 6.00Mt<br />
• ARM Coal (Pty) Ltd 3.20Mt<br />
• Exxaro Coal (Pty) Ltd 2.50Mt<br />
• Umcebo Mining (Pty) Ltd 1.00Mt<br />
• Tumelo Coal Mines (Pty) Ltd 0.60Mt<br />
• Yomhlaba Resources Limited 0.50Mt<br />
