      Do they want new jobs, or other coal miners' jobs?
      http://www.tai.org.au/content/adani-s-automated-mine-risks-j…

      From the cover page:

      “If Australia wants a just transition for our coal workers then the worst thing we can do is to open up new mines that proponents plan to automate ‘from pit to port’,” said Rod Campbell, Director of Research at The Australia Institute.
      “Put simply, new mines, in new coal basins, destroy jobs in existing coal regions.
      “Building new coal mines in the Galilee Basin would reduce the overall coal workforce by between 2,680 and 5,800 mine workers in the coming decades.

      From the report:

      Industry analysts Wood Mackenzie modelled the effects of Galilee Basin production on
      other coal mining regions – the Hunter Valley, Bowen Basin and Surat Basin. They
      estimate that Galilee Basin production of 150 million tonnes per year would reduce
      coal volumes in other areas by 116 million tonnes in 2035 relative to a baseline
      scenario with no Galilee Basin development.

      This isn't moral police, this is economists doing modelling on what Galilee coal production will do to existing coalfields staffed by people who also want jobs.

      And yeah, whatever humans will do will not match what happened 65 million years ago with the asteroid that wiped out 3/4 of all plant and animal species, ending the 165 million year reign of the dinosaurs. Something of that scale is going to happen again sooner or later. The planet didn't die last time, just most of what was on it. And new life evolved to fill the gaps.

      Environmentalism is a human concern. The planet doesn't give a stuff, and humanity will be lucky to live anywhere near as long as the dinosaurs.
      The real question is how degraded you want the world to be for your grandkids, and how we'd like to be remembered by our descendants.

  • 0jay on 25/05/2019 - 10:47
    +24

    I honestly don't care enough to get involved… but.. thought I'd do it anyway:

    Plan is for a 10m ton per year mine, rising to 20mtpa

    Galilee coal is ~5,000kcal/kg NAR — about the same as Indonesian Envirocoal which currently sells for $66/ton before shipping costs (at a time when thermal coal prices are at multiyear highs)

    So your revenue is ~$660m in the first stage

    What are the mining costs? Adani doesn't say but BHP's Mt Arthur, a ~20mtpa in the better-located Hunter Valley run by one of the most efficient miners in the world, does $46/ton. So that's ~$460m a year on mining costs, leaving $200m/year left over.

    But wait! You have to build the mine and a railway first. Again Adani are rubbery on the numbers but the best estimate from the unofficial figures they've put out for the scaled-down project are $1.5bn for the mine and $1.5bn for the railway.

    So that's $3bn.

    Adani owns Abbot Point port, which is a project with a guaranteed customer (Glencore). Its bonds on this yield about 7% which is a good proxy for what they'd pay for the Carmichael project.

    7% of A$3bn is US$140m of interest each year.

    So we're down to $60m of profit. But wait! The railway they're building only gets you halfway to the coast. They'd have to pay Aurizon for the remaining distance which ballpark comes to about $6/ton on 10mtpa of product.

    The project is now not making a cent of profit.

    WAIT! You also have to amortize the loan principal, and depreciate your A$3bn/US$2bn capital asset. Hard to see how accountants would allow a depreciation schedule longer than 30 years and you'd have to amortize over — guessing here — ~10.

    That puts you an extra ~$260m the hole. Adani is losing $26 on every ton it digs up. More if coal prices fall from their current highs.

    If the output rises to 20mtpa this maths improves, sorta. You have $400m of gross profit. But then subtract the $140m in interest, $260m in D&A and now $120m to Aurizon and you're still losing $6/ton.

    And the plan is to self-fund the expansion to 20mtpa, which clearly doesn't work because the 10mtpa mine is already losing money so can't self-fund a chook raffle.

    • GossipGoat on 25/05/2019 - 11:17
      +4

      Don't forget the government subsidies!

      Lets face it the people who want this mine are short sighted who cant embrace the fact that their coal jobs won't be there in 20 years time. They don't give two shits if the economics of the project make no sense or if it comes at the cost of the environment as long as they can delay the inevitable.

      But if QLD wants to destroy their biggest tourist attraction that facilitates thousands of long term jobs and supercharge climate change then so be it

    • alidli on 25/05/2019 - 16:58

      Great analysis Simmo.

      Isn't Adani's mine the tip of the mining iceberg in the Galilee region. The real aim is to put in tax-payer funded rail/port infrastructure for the true beneficiary- Gina Rinehart's Hancock joint Alpha venture with another Indian company GVK, and also to benefit Clive Palmer who has interests there.
      A total of 9 mines have been proposed in the region, five of which would be among the biggest in the world, producing up to 330 million tonnes of coal a year, more than doubling the amount of coal Australia exports, releasing potentially 700 million tonnes of carbon dioxide when burned.

    Apparently the carmichael mines are not feasible and there are economically better alternatives.

    If so that is great, can someone put that forward as an option to all those qlders depending on adani for their livelihoods?

    The court supported the proof that coal mines cause environmental damage: https://www.smh.com.au/environment/climate-change/we-won-lan…

    This is a 1 in a 100 case where a coal mine actually gets rejected but I'm hoping it's a catalyst for more similar outcomes throughout the world.
