Boggabri Coal

Boggabri coal mine is an open-cut coal operation which has been contributing to the community and regional economy since 2006.

The mine supports a workforce of about 875 full time equivalent employees and contractors. Most of our workers and their families live locally and are part of the community. Coal mined is processed through a coal handling and preparation plant before being transported by rail to the Port of Newcastle for international export.

The mine produces low ash thermal coal as well as PCI and Semi-soft metallurgical coals.

The Boggabri leadership team works closely with government, community and key stakeholders in the area to manage potential impacts on the environment and deliver on commitments to preserve the region’s water, biodiversity and environmental outcomes.
