ASX-listed Coronado Global on Thursday stated that legal charges had been filed in the Magistrates Court District of Emerald against its subsidiary, Coronado Curragh (CCPL), following a fatal incident at the Curragh mine in Queensland three years ago.

The charges relate to the death of Clark Peadon in November 2021.

In a statement on Thursday, Coronado acknowledged the serious nature of the incident and reiterated that the safety of its workers remained its highest priority.

“The safety of our people is our most important priority, and we are committed to working hard every day to create an injury-free workplace,” said the company. “We acknowledge the significant impact this incident has had on Clark’s family and we again express our deepest sympathies to Clark’s family and his co-workers.”

While CCPL is reviewing the charges, the company stated that, owing to the ongoing legal proceedings, it would not be making further comments at this time.
