Our upcoming workshop is being held at Moranbah in central Queensland, followed by a site tour to the South Walker Creek Mine. The current program is available here.
South Walker Creek is an open-cut mine located 35 kilometres west of Nebo in Queensland’s Bowen Basin. The mine has been operating since 1996 and adopts a multi-bench, open-cut mining method utilising a dragline, and truck and hydraulic excavators. With a mine life of 50-plus years, South Walker Creek produced 5.9Mt of high-quality low volatile PCI coal in FY21. South Walker Creek PCI is one of the highest performing PCI products in a steel blast furnace given its low volatility matter.
Stanmore Resources acquired BHP’s 80% interest in BMC in May 2022 and 100% in early October 2022, becoming the operator of South Walker Creek.
As usual registration is via our website.
