Bathurst reported $213m in export sales in the 2024 financial year, and internal reports said the company spent around $85 million on wages and $240 million on equipment, fuel and other practical expenses.

So a $325M cost of operation on $213M of export sales...what total sales?

Also

more than it collected in royalties for all coal mining nationwide the same year.

What are "royalties"; how are they distinct from tax?

Equipment costs might (probably?) be amortised over time, but still requires upfront expenditure.

Unless it’s a load of gloves. I always lose gloves.
