Whitehaven Coal is a large Australian independent thermal and metallurgical coal miner with mines in the Gunnedah Basin, New South Wales. It also bought Blackwater and Daunia, two coking coal mines in Queensland, from BHP and Mitsubishi in April 2024. In addition, it owns the large Winchester South deposit next to its Daunia mine. Coal is railed to ports in Newcastle and Queensland for export to Asian customers. Initial production of about 1 million metric tons from Vickery and expanded production at its Queensland mines, Maules Creek, and Narrabri means we expect its share of salable coal production to approach 31 million metric tons from fiscal 2030, from about 13 million in fiscal 2023.
