Goonyella Riverside is a large open cut coking coal mine in the Bowen Basin. It is 30km north of Moranbah. The Goonyella Mine merged with the adjacent Riverside open cut mine in 1989. Goonyella is a reasonably large mine taking 30-40 minutes to drive from one end to the other and unlike some of the other mines it is made up of continuous pits, not a series of small pits. Coal from the Goonyella Mine is transported by rail to the coal export terminals at Dalrymple Bay and Hay Point from where it is exported to the company’s customers in India, China, South Korea, Latin America and Europe.
