NSW Mining | The official NSW Minerals Council website

There are more than 40,000 people working in mining jobs across NSW. And there are thousands more working in businesses that supply our mines and benefit from mining too.

In places like Campbeltown, Penrith, Castle Hill, Sutherland Shire and St Leonards in Sydney.

And on the Central Coast, in Lake Macquarie, Singleton and Muswellbrook in the Hunter Valley, Narrabri and Gunnedah in the northwest, Wauchope on the mid-North Coast, Wollongong in the south, and right across the western parts of the state from Dubbo Bathurst, Orange and Parkes right through to Broken Hill.

Mining supporting jobs in regional NSW

Mining is the lifeblood of many of these communities and they are supported by people working in really interesting jobs.

We want to introduce some of these incredible people and share more about what they do. From Chemical Engineers to Drone Pilots. Software Engineers and Lab Technicians to Environmental Scientists and Business Analysts. These are the high-value roles that are vital to a strong mining industry in NSW and the economic benefits mining creates.

Like the $1.8 billion a year in royalties paid to the NSW Government which go towards essential infrastructure and services we all rely on like nurses, teachers and police.
