Advertisement Massive cracks in the Yallourn coal mine caused by recent flooding have left a multimillion-dollar damage bill as the owner grapples with long-term repair works needed to avert further disruption to the state’s power supply. Major flooding at Yallourn has drawn comparisons with the nearby former Hazelwood coal mine and power station, where a massive fire in 2014 precipitated the facility’s abrupt closure less than three years later. Damage to the mine, which was evacuated after recent wild weather, prompted the state government to declare an energy emergency last month.

The company is working on short-term measures to seal the cracks that are visible as it seeks a permanent solution to repair the damage.
