    The metallurgical coal producer said its operations at the
mine would restart over the coming days in a phased manner but
drag line operations would remain suspended.
    The stock was down over 5% on Wednesday.
    It added that while the Queensland police were no longer at
the site, the Resources Safety & Health Queensland (RSHQ)
inspectors had given the company directives to isolate the
accident site and suspend all excavations until all safety norms
are satisfied. 
    The RSHQ inspectors are continuing the investigation of the
incident, Coronado said.  urn:newsml:reuters.com:*:nASX8MTgBF
