Coal mining is a thing of the past? Think again. Thanks to incredible access provided by Bravus Mining and Resources, we take you behind the scenes of the Carmichael Mine, one of Australia’s newest mining operations.

The Carmichael Mine is one of 100 coal mines in Australia, producing around 10 million tons of coal annually.

Consistent power is necessary to help lift millions out of poverty, and coal is a crucial ingredient. Bravus helps meet the world’s growing energy demand with high-quality coal, displacing lower-quality coal mined in detrimental ways.

The mine operates 24/7, with crews often flying directly to the site and staying within the local camp due to its remote location.

They move the overburden and coal with trucks and shovels. We saw their enormous Liebherr 9800s (some of the biggest hydraulic excavators in the world) load Caterpillar haul trucks on day and night shifts. I even got a ride!

Once they reach the coal seams, they mine and haul it out of the mine and to the processing plant, where it’s cleaned, sized, and loaded onto rail cars for shipping.

As they mine, there’s a well-designed plan for reclamation, which calls for restoring all land to its original state.
