The Luon coal project is a proposed open cut and underground metallurgical and thermal coal deposit which is included in the umbrella Maruwai coal project of BHP-Billiton. The Maruwai coal project is held by a joint venture in which BHP Billiton is a 75% shareholder and a subsidiary of Adaro holds the remaining 25% share.[1]
The Luon coal project is located in the Kalteng Coal Contract of Work and is 45 km northwest of Lampunut. BHP Billiton stated that as of the end of 2009 there was a total resource of 60 million tonnes of metallurgical coal which could be mined via an underground mine and a further 80 million tonnes of metallurgical and thermal coal which could be mined via an open cut operation.[1]
