Summary:

Drayton mine is located near the township of Muswellbrook in the Upper Hunter Valley of New South Wales. It is an open cut mine using both dragline and truck and shovel to produce thermal coal for export markets. Currently production is approximately five Mtpa, employing approximately 310 permanent employees with contractors to support operations.

Overburden and interburden is predominantly removed by the dragline and the excavators, with assistance where required from front-end loaders. Overburden, parting and coal thicker than two metres is blasted. All overburden and parting material is moved to tips located within the previously mined areas.
