The Client

Goonyella Riverside Mine is a large mine site in Queensland’s Bowen Basin.

The mine is an open cut coal mine, located 30 kilometres north of Moranbah.

Coal is exported on the Goonyella railway line to Hay Point, from where it’s sent to markets worldwide.

The Goonyella Riverside mine is a part of BMA, the 50:50 joint venture between BHP and Mitsubishi Development.

The Challenge

The mine site required a sweeper that could sweep the site’s large roadways and workshop areas.

The roadways had steep inclinations which were very dusty, with high concentrations of embedded coal dust and gravel.

The Result

The Company invested in an ASC Eureka M8 street sweeper
