  • interaction agreement: agreement to regulate interaction between coal mining operations on licences and agreements.

  • option agreement: option to grant a property lease of coal in the future on underground, surface mining and underground coal gasification

  • security deed: deed managing cash security held by the authority on all licences and agreements

  • security deposit deed: deed managing cash security held in an external bank account on all licences and agreements

An interaction agreement flow diagram, which gives guidance for the use of an interaction agreement and the exchange of information to aid the effective exploitation of coal, is also available on request.
