{{#badges: CoalSwarm|Navbar-Indonesiacoal}}The '''IndoMet Coal Project''' (ICP) (previously referred to by BHP Billiton as the Maruwai coal project), covers five potential coal deposits in East and Central Kalimantan in Indonesia. The coal deposits were discovered by BHP Billiton in the late 1990's but initial development of the first of the five deposits within the broad project area - the [[Haju coal project]] -- did not commence until 2008, was shelved in 2009 and recommenced in 2013 with first production slated for 2014.
Other than the Haju mine, the other undeveloped metallurgical and thermal coal deposits are the [[Lampunut coal project]], the [[Luon coal project]], the [[Bumbun coal project]] and the [[Juloi Northwest coal project]] -- are located within seven Coal Contracts of Work (CCoWs). While BHP Billiton's plan is the develop the Lampunut project after Haju, the main focus of exploration work is on the Bumbun and Julio NorthWest deposits, both of which are proposed as open cut mines.
