Recent Projects
We have a well-established culture of maintaining high environmental standards, and implementing best industry practice to minimise impacts to the environment.
Ohai, Southland
In March 2005 we commenced a five-year contract for opencast coal mining operations for Solid Energy NZ in Ohai, Southland.
Rotowaro, Waikato
Stevenson Mining provided its expertise to Solid Energy’s Rotowaro Opencast Mine in a six-month contract for Leighton Contractors. We supplied a 10-member team of operators to the Rotowaro Coalfield, running a day and a night shift at the mine.
Stevenson Mining has supported the main contractor at Rotowaro with overburden removal, coal winning and coal processing for Solid Energy.

Past Projects
Stevenson has a long proud history in the New Zealand coal mining industry, which began in 1948 at Kopuku Mine (since renamed Kopako). We became involved in the overburden stripping operation, which soon developed into the largest of its kind in the country.
Our involvement in the industry continued with Glencoal Energy in the mines at Kopako, Renown and Pirongia.
In the past three years we have also successfully completed work for Oceana Gold’s Macraes Mine in Otago. Find out more about our past projects.
Stevenson Mining is a subsidiary of Stevenson Resources, which is 100 per cent owned by the Stevenson Group.
