In 2011, the estimated economic impact of the coal mining industry in Canada, in terms of GDP, was estimated to be $5.2 billion. In 2011, this represented approximately 0.09% of the national GDP. Tbtal tax revenues from the coal mining industry were approximately $698 million. As noted above, government tax revenues generated using economic impact analysis does not include royalties collected. Additional mineral royalties collected and reported by provincial governments in 2011 were $344 million and are in addition to the tax revenues estimated above. Tax revenue generated by the coal mining industry helps to support local community infrastructure and government programs. Industry expenditures were a source of approximately 42,030 direct and indirect jobs across Canada, with an estimated average annual wage for the industry of $92,785 for direct employment from coal companies responding to the survey (7,154 employees). The average coal mining industry wage is more than twice that of the average national wage of $43,700, indicating that coal mining jobs are highly paid. As coal properties are generally located in remote areas, mine activity contributes towards the retention of local labour with well-paying jobs and support to local businesses. In 2011, there were 24 producing mines across Canada of which 11 mines were producing metallurgical coal and 13 were producing thermal coaL
