Hail Creek Mine

Hail Creek Mine is committed to sustainable development  and ensuring positive environmental, social and economic outcomes for the community in which it operates.

The mine ensures all employees and visitors comply with Rio Tinto Coal Australia's approach to environmental management to minimise the mine's impact on the environment and to ensure that mined land is effectively rehabilitated.

Hail Creek Mine is also committed to making a sustained contribution to social and economic well being of the Mackay and Nebo region. Through Rio Tinto Coal Australia's community relations programme and the Hail Creek Mine Community Development Fund, the mine is working to help provide positive long term outcomes for the region.
