After more than 60 years and 800,000 tonnes of coal, the Awaba Colliery will close later tonight.
Workers clocked on for the final time earlier today, in what is the end of an era in mining.

& the new bigger brighter badder mine will be known as’ Lochiel’, apparently named after ex CEO Bob Camerons family heritage?
The old state owned asset privatised to Centennial Coal & now in Thai ( Banpu) hands . Yep the great state Mate! wonder whats in the burner, for this little Global Village? Wonder if the AWABA community know? Maybe we should all grab a Winnebago?
As one door closes a larger one opens! Small village with an international invasion. Not all mining is good for Australia, especially as we are only left with a hole in the ground at the end of it all.
