Ost colliery, 1901 - 30.09.2010 |
|
Pro-Bergbau sends the best wishes to the miners and their families for the upcoming changes in their lifes. And I personally say: Thank you for all the wonderful hours at Ost colliery ! Photos of Ost colliery's last day on which coal was produced can be found in the Pro-Bergbau photo gallery. If you want to get there, please click here.
The shutdown of collieries is also the main topic
of Reinhold Kaemmerer's song "1.000 Feuer sind erloschen" (translation: "1.000
fires are extinguished"). The song can be found in the news section of Reinhold's homepage at
www.rudycash.de. |

Since January 1st in 2008 the
company that produces the hard coal in Germany is called RAG Deutsche Steinkohle
AG and additionally there have been some structural changes. For that reason Pro-Bergbau presents a special page with various pieces of
information about the RAG
that can be found if you click here.
An exposition about the Clean Coal technology can now be found in the arguments' section.
