Ensham mine

Ensham Mine is an existing underground bord and pillar coal mine located approximately 35 km east of Emerald and 50km north-west of Blackwater.

Underground operations commenced in 2011, with progressive rehabilitation continuing over the mine’s life. Ensham proudly hosts Nogoa Pastoral livestock in and around mining and rehabilitation areas as a joint business. Ensham has been a significant contributor to the Emerald community since 1993 and, for the past 25 years, has supported regional employment and local businesses. Ensham is committed to working with our local communities to create sustainable outcomes. The continued employment of the existing workforce at the Ensham Mine is of strategic economic and social significance to the Emerald locality and wider Central Highlands region.
