Goonyella Riverside Mine is a large open cut coking coal mine in the Bowen Basin.[1] It is one of many coal mines in Central Queensland, Australia and is located at Moranbah about 30 km north of the township.[2] The mine produced 12.4 million tonnes of metallurgical coal from July 2012 to June 2013.[3] It is owned by BHP Mitsubishi Alliance.[4][5] The Goonyella Upper Seam, the Goonyella Middle Seam and the Goonyella Lower Seam are all mined at the site. The coal is well known for its great coking characteristics. Much of the coal was such a high grade, the wash plants were often programmed to add ash to meet the contracted export quality targets.
