Nœux-les-Mines () is a commune in the Pas-de-Calais department in the Hauts-de-France region of France.
==Geography== Nœux-les-Mines is situated some south of Béthune and southwest of Lille, at the junction of the D937 and D65 roads. As the name of the town itself might imply, it was established as a coal mining centre, however with the decline of the mining industry in the area Nœux-les-Mines has evolved to become a light industrial and farming town.
