Australia builds world's biggest coal port

Australia is spending hundreds of millions of dollars building the world's largest coal shipping port. The new facility, at Newcastle, NSW, is costing $900m and will be the world’s largest coal exporter by the time it’s completed. Built by a consortium of six mining companies, the new port will handle up to 66 million tonnes of coal each year.
“This is yet another example of Australia’s expanding economy and the confidence that exists in the country’s future,” says Darrell Todd, ceo of ThinkingAustralia.com.
“If you are considering a move to Australia, major projects like these offer great opportunities for jobs and migration”.
A free seminar is being held in London on Sunday June 21st offering comprehensive information about job opportunities in Australia and all aspects of migration including shipping, property and currency exchange. It’s free to attend.
