Platinum Sponsor
BMA - BHP Billiton Mitsubishi Alliance
BHP Billiton Mitsubishi Alliance (BMA) is Australia’s largest exporter of seaborne metallurgical coal. Our mines have a combined production capacity of more than 58 million tonnes per year, and almost all of the coal produced is used overseas for steel production. BMA supplies high quality coking coals, weak coking coals, Pulverised Coal Injection (PCI) coals and thermal coals to domestic and international customers.
BMA was formed in 2001 as a partnership between BHP Billiton and Mitsubishi Development Pty Ltd. The two companies share equal ownership and management of seven Bowen Basin coal mines – Blackwater, Broadmeadow, Goonyella Riverside, Peak Downs, Saraji, Norwich Park and Gregory Crinum – and the Hay Point coal export terminal near Mackay.
In addition, BMA manages two mines – Poitrel and South Walker Creek – on behalf of BHP Mitsui Coal Pty Ltd, which is owned by BHP Billiton (80 per cent) and Mitsui (20 per cent). BMA operations provide significant benefits to the local communities to the broader Central Queensland region and the economic development of Queensland. BMA is one of the largest employers in the region with over 4,800 people directly employed (at April 2009). BMA also has a significant flow-on effect to other jobs in industries servicing the mines, ports and townships in the Central Queensland region.
