Canonbie Coalfield

[1] Canonbie colliery was worked until 1920, and another mine at Archerbeck continued until 1942.

[2] Recent work has indicated potentially economically workable reserves beneath a cover of New Red Sandstone rocks.

In 2014, New Age Exploration Limited proposed a new coal mine in the Canonbie area.

They estimated that the new mine could operate for 26 years and yield 1.4 million tonnes of coal per annum.
