Original Note:
The figure quoted is not a "fossil fuel subsidy" and predominantly includes "fuel tax credits". This is not unique to mining companies and applies to many other businesses. These include agriculture (farming), construction and other fuel use not on public roads. https://www.ato.gov.au/Business/Fuel-schemes/Fuel-tax-credits---non-business/Rates---non-business/From-1-July-2022-to-30-June-2023/
