Yancoal Australia is trading at A$6.02, up 4.70%, after New South Wales approved its Hunter Valley Operations continuation project.

  • The extension allows mining at HVO North until 2045 and HVO South until 2042; Yancoal owns 51% of the joint venture.
  • Federal environmental approval is still required by the end of 2026, so the state decision is an important step but not final approval.
