Blair Athol coal mine

The Blair Athol Coal Mine is a coal mine located in the Bowen Basin of Central Queensland, Australia. It is located over the former site of the township of Blair Athol, Queensland. The mine has coal reserves amounting to 195 million tonnes of coking coal, one of the largest coal reserves in Asia and the world. The mine has an annual production capacity of 12.9 million tonnes of coal.
Coal was first discovered at this location in 1864 and has been mined from this area since this time by different companies.
Underground mining changed to small-scale open cut mining in the 1920-30s, the first open cut coal mine in Queensland.
In 1968, the Blair Athol coal field was taken over by two large multinationals, CRA and Clutha Development. Exploration showed that the township was over the main coal seam, resulting in the relocation of residences to the nearby town of Clermont in the mid-1970s.
In 1984, the Rio Tinto company opened its main mine at this location, as a large scale open cut mine.〔 Peak production was reached in 2009 with 11.3 million tonnes of coal exported.〔 Rio Tinto Coal Australia closed the mine in August 2012 because it was nearly exhausted. Blair Athol was bought by New Emerald Coal, a subsidiary of Linc Energy in 2013.
