BRISBANE, June 1 Asia Pulse - Pacific Coal, a Rio Tinto Ltd subsidiary, is to spend $A425 million ($US216.88 million) developing a new coking coal mine in Australia.

The mine will be located near Mackay in Queensland.

The Hail Creek Coal Project will develop one of the largest coking coal deposits in the world, with resources estimated at 1.2 billion tonnes.

The proposed open cut coking coal mine will be 92 per cent owned by Pacific Coal, 5.3 per cent owned by Marubeni and 2.67 per cent owned by Sumitomo.

First shipments from the Dalrymple Bay coal terminal are expected in the third quarter of 2003.

Pacific Coal managing director Brian Horwood said the time was right for Hail Creek to be developed, given conditions in the international coking coal market.

"The world coal market needs high quality product that Queensland's Hail Creek will produce," he said.
