Our operations are currently underpinned by our new Narrabri underground operation which commenced longwall production in October 2012, and our three existing open cut mines – all situated in NSW’s Gunnedah Basin.<\/p>\n

Construction has commenced at our Maules Creek project and and approval is being sought for our Vickery project, also located in the Gunnedah Basin. These projects are expected to provide significant and exciting career opportunities across a wide range of mining-related professions.<\/p>\n

Maules Creek is one of the last major undeveloped and significant multi-seam coal deposits in New South Wales and is expected to sustain a potential project life in excess of 30 years, with average saleable coal production of 11.0 Mtpa.<\/p>\n

The Narrabri mine is a modern, technologically-advanced underground operation with its new longwall already exceeding initial design production rates after only one year of operation. The mine will produce over 6.0 Mtpa with an expected life in excess of 25 years.<\/p>\n

The company also operates a Coal Handling and Preparation Plant (CHPP) and rail loader near Gunnedah.<\/p>\n

Whitehaven has an 11% interest in the Newcastle Coal Infrastructure Group (NCIG) which recently completed the construction of the final stage of a new coal export terminal at the Port of Newcastle.
