Proserpine Mill processed just over 87,000 tonnes for the week. This was above budget and the highest weekly throughput for the year.
Average weekly CCS came in below budget at 13.96 units.
The highest CCS was 16.71 units from a rake of ratoon Q208 from the Lethebrook productivity district.
A scheduled maintenance stop is planned for Tuesday, September 17.
With school holidays about to commence across Queensland, we urge parents and guardians to remind their children about the dangers of playing on or near the cane rail network.
A reminder that our cane trains operate 24/7. Remember to use your train brain and always give way to cane trains. A fully loaded cane train can take up to one kilometre to stop.
