Griffin Coal

Italy

Griffin Coal is a large coal mine near the town of Collie in Western Australia, producing about 2.5 million tonnes (5.5 billion pounds) of coal annually. In September 2022 its current owner, the Griffin Coal Mining Company, a subsidiary of Lanco Infratech, entered receivership. In December 2022 the

Government of Western Australia announced a grant – effectively a loan – to the receivers and managers of the insolvent mine to enable it to continue supplying the privately-owned Bluewaters Power Station over the Western Australian summer.
