Queensland cyclone impact, page-37

SYDNEY, April 7 (Reuters) - Australian rail operator Aurizon Holdings Ltd (AZJ) said on Friday repair work would take longer than expected on its Blackwater coal haulage line damaged by Cyclone Debbie, and would reopen on April 10 under restricted conditions.

However, there was no change to the five-week repair schedule for the major Goonyella line that connects into the Dalrymple Bay and Hay Point Coal terminals, Aurizon said.

"Recovery and repairs are being undertaken at multiple sites along the Goonyella corridor, including at Black Mountain which experienced significant landslides," it said.

Coal export disruptions have led to huge price rises in globally-traded coking coal.
