GB. WALES. Aberfan. The Aberfan disaster was a catastrophic collapse of a colliery spoil tip in the Welsh village of Aberfan killing 116 children and 28 adults. It was caused by a build-up of water in the accumulated rock and shale which suddenly started to slide downhill in the form of slurry. 1966.

GB. WALES. Neath Valley, Black Mountain Coal. Pit ponies each have an individual handler who is responsible for its health, welfare and cleanliness. Ponies are not underground for long periods. Simply the time it takes to get to the coal face and bring coal out to the surface. A distance of about a mile. Between shifts the miners gather in their own rest-room. 1993
