Coal production rises while use declines across NSW
Production of coal in NSW increases to a provisional 1969 total near 11,150,000 tons with a daily peak of 173,000 tons on December 1, yet coal used for town gas reduces overall consumption by about one percent from 1968 levels. Exports remain robust and employment shows a shift toward greater mechanisation, with November figures indicating smaller crews and higher efficiency across Maitland, North West, Newcastle, and Burragorang Valley.
