Entire town of Middlemount sold off
The Central Queensland mayor of a mining town that has just been sold in a $5.43 billion acquisition says there will be a “huge change” in the “social fabric” of the region.
Anglo American walked away from its Queensland coal empire, selling five mines across Queensland and the Isaac region town of Middlemount for $5.43 billion to UK-based mining firm Dhilmar Limited.
The Isaac Regional Council Mayor Kelly Vea Vea said the council did not know what the sale meant for Middlemount.
