Whitehaven Coal Limited

Whitehaven Coal is a leading Australian ASX-listed producer of high-quality thermal and metallurgical coal.

Exporting its products to premium markets, predominantly in Asia, Whitehaven is committed to sustaining regional communities and ensuring the benefits flowing from its operations are seen and felt locally. 75% of our 2,750-strong workforce live in the areas surrounding our operations and we are proud of the role we play in supporting our local communities.

Whitehaven operates four mines (three open-cut and one large underground mine) in the Gunnedah Basin in NSW, and recently announced the acquisition of two metallurgical coal mines in Central Queensland – Daunia and Blackwater. The acquisition will approximately double Whitehaven’s workforce and ROM production, and increase the company’s resources to 3.1 billion tonnes in the Bowen Basin.

Whitehaven’s operating assets are complemented by two high-quality, near-term development assets, being Vickery, near Gunnedah in NSW, and Winchester South, near Moranbah in Queensland.

For more than two decades, including 15 years as a publicly listed entity, Whitehaven has developed a reputation for excellence in project delivery, safe operation, environmental performance and targeted investment in the local economy and community.
