Seaham Colliery, County Durham, England, showing the head gear above the shaft, and work in an active coal seam. The central vignettes show two models of miner's lamp, the Davy, left, which was the more popular, and the Clanny. Below, a boy is operating the ventillating furnace which created a draught in the workings, so preventing a build up of fire-damp (methane). On the right a pit pony pulling wagons has just passed through a trap door, another device to control ventillation. Engraving from The Graphic (London, 28 January 1871).

The Tagebau Garzweiler is a large strip mine (Tagebau) in North-Rhine Westphalia, Germany. It is operated by RWE and used for mining lignite. The mine currently has a size of 48 km² and takes its name from the village Garzweiler previously existing in that location. Mining is taking place in the 66,0 km² area Garzweiler I located east of motorway A 44, and in 2006 the bucket-wheel excavators first touched parts of the 48,0 km² Garzweiler II area. Exploitation is planned from 2006 until 2045.

The plaster cast bodies of the Pompeii victims are the most vivid shocking reminders of the horrific event that made Pompeii famous. The Pompeii citizens were choked by the ash and pumice-stone dust or killed by the accompanying poison gas. Hundreds of casts of human and animal bodies survive in Pompeii. The way they were preserved is unique and gives an insight into the life and death of the city.Excavating Plaster Casts of Bodies at Pompeii, Italy. Excavators at Pompeii will frequently come across a void in the hardened ash, made by organic remains decomposing after the ash/mud has set. Early excavators would pour concrete into the voids and excavate around them subsequently. Today a clear polymer is used instead, allowing archaeologists to see the relation of artefacts and bones therein. This particular body cast bears an imprint of a slave band around its waste, he was probably one of the slaves left behind to look after the homes o the wealthy in Pompeii after the Earthquake whixch took place there in AD 62 prior to th efatal volcanic blast of AD 79

Coal mining, open cast, deforestation, environment, coalmine, ledo, Assam, India, rain forest

Mining for Assam?s ?black gold?, coal has taken a heavy toll on the thick forest cover of Patkai, Tikok and Tirap hills in Tinsukhia district of Assam. The open cast mines run by North-Eastern Coalfields Limited (NECL) have been extracting coal in the region at a stripping rate of 1:14 (a ratio of coal produced to waste generated). As a result, the company has literally created hills of mine waste. Due to the high-grade sulphur coal produced, acid mine drainage from the North East Coalfields contaminates the area. Trace metals and other weather able minerals are leached from the coal in the form of acidic wastewater. Tests conducted by the Centre for Science and Environment (CSE) have shown the presence of heavy metals like cadmium, chromium, lead, mercury and arsenic in the wastewater discharges from Ledo mines as well as in the stream water downstream of the Ledo mines. Moreover, the wastewater and stream water both had pH in the range of 3-3.5. The acidic wastewater, often called as the 'gas-paani' by the locals, ultimately finds its way into nearby ravines and rivers. When it reaches the paddy fields, it completely destroys the fertility of the soil. Mine management is supposed to treat the water with lime but locals claim this rarely occurs.
