BHP plans to seek approval for an extension of operations at the Mount Arthur thermal coal mine in New South Wales to 2045 despite recent efforts to sell the asset.
The company is seeking state and federal development and environmental approvals to keep Mt Arthur active after the current open cut approval expires on June 30 2026.
To extend the mine's operations, BHP stated that minor extensions to the existing mining infrastructure would be required.
