Kestrel Coal Resources's reported carbon emissions

In 2020, Kestrel Coal Resources reported total carbon emissions of approximately 1,103,999,900 kg CO2e. This figure represents the company's overall emissions without specific breakdowns into Scope 1, 2, or 3 categories, as no detailed scope data has been disclosed.
