Rixs Creek North Coal Mine

Rix's Creek North Coal Mine, situated on Bridgman Road in Bridgman, NSW 2330, is an integral part of The Bloomfield Group's mining operations. Established in 1990, the mine produces both thermal and semi-soft coking coal, primarily for export markets. The operation employs approximately 300 local individuals and supports various local businesses. Coal extracted from Rix's Creek North is transported by rail to the Port of Newcastle, where it is loaded onto ships via Port Waratah Coal Services. The mine is currently seeking to extend its operational life through the Rix's Creek North Continuation Project, aiming to continue mining until 2049.
