NSW Mining

NSW Mining The NSW Minerals Council is the leading industry association representing the NSW mining industry. Mining is critical to the economy of NSW.

Our sector provides NSW’s most valuable exports and around one-quarter of total NSW exports by value. There are thousands of people across NSW who work in mining and depend on a strong mining industry for their livelihoods. Our mining companies directly spend around $10 billion in NSW each year, underpinning the economic strength of many regional communities, and we also provide the coal used to g

enerate over 80 per cent of the electricity needs of NSW households and businesses. Learn more about how we mine responsibly today and into the future at www.responsiblemining.com.au

Thank you for getting involved in our page! We’re glad you’ve joined us to see leading practice and innovation from our industry, and we welcome your comments and input. Please view NSW Minerals Council’s Social Media Policy: https://www.nswmining.com.au/social-media-policy

If you have further questions, you can contact us via our website where we will be able to offer more comprehensive responses to queries.

NSW Premier Chris Minns has visited an underground coal mine in Lake Macquarie to show his support for the industry, meeting frontline workers alongside Minister for Natural Resources Courtney Houssos.

The NSW Government has recently released an updated strategy setting out the future of coal mining in NSW, giving workers and companies operating here certainty about the future as demand for our high-quality NSW coal remains strong, for making steel and for energy production.

Our CEO writes in the Daily Telegraph today regarding the important role mining plays in locking in NSW economic strength.

One of the biggest challenges facing the industry is anti-mining activists using technical points of law to disrupt and delay already approved mining projects.

For our state and our nation to meet the challenges of uncertain global economic conditions, we need to support job creating mining projects currently in the planning pipeline.
