The Coronado Global Resources Inc (ASX: CRN) share price has rebounded after a heavy selling session yesterday. This comes despite the company not making any new announcements on Tuesday.
The coal producer’s share price fell 11.11% on Monday to a one-month low of 28 cents. This followed news of a fatal incident at its Curragh operations in Queensland.
Sentiment has, however, since improved. At the time of writing, Coronado shares are swapping hands for 36.5 cents, up 14.06% for the day.
Here is what investors are weighing up.
What happened at Curragh?
Late last week, an incident occurred at Coronado’s Mammoth Underground Mine, part of the Curragh mine complex near Blackwater in central Queensland.
According to the release, the company confirmed that a worker was fatally injured during the incident and said it was supporting the worker’s family, friends, and colleagues.
Operations at the Mammoth Underground Mine were suspended following the incident. As a precaution, Coronado also temporarily halted work at its Curragh North and Curragh South open-cut mines.
The company later confirmed that both open-cut mines have since restarted operations in a staged manner. The underground mine remains suspended while investigations continue. Queensland safety authorities have launched a formal investigation.
Why did the share price fall?
The fall in Coronado’s share price on Monday reflected investor uncertainty around the potential impact on operations.
The Mammoth Underground Mine is an important part of Coronado’s metallurgical coal production at Curragh, and any extended shutdown could affect output and costs. With limited information available at the time, the market appeared to take a more cautious approach.
Why are Coronado shares rebounding?
Today’s rebound suggests investors are beginning to reassess the scale of the disruption.
With open-cut operations back online, the immediate production impact appears more limited. Coronado also has a broader portfolio of assets, reducing its reliance on any single operation.
Coal prices have also been supportive, with coking coal trading above US$220 per tonne over the past month. After Monday’s sharp fall, some investors may also see the stock as being oversold.
What to watch next
The key focus will be updates on the investigation and any guidance on when Mammoth Underground Mine may resume operations.
Until then, Coronado shares are likely to remain volatile as investors balance operational uncertainty with movements in coal prices.
For now, I will be watching developments from the sidelines until there is clearer visibility on its operations.
