Coal miners faced several dangers, including exposure to harmful dust that could lead to respiratory diseases like pneumoconiosis or "black lung." Additionally, the risk of explosions from methane gas buildup and cave-ins posed significant threats to their safety. Poor working conditions and inadequate ventilation further exacerbated these hazards, often resulting in serious injuries or fatalities. The physical demands of the job also led to chronic musculoskeletal issues among miners.
Some themes in Wilfred Owen's 'Miners' include the hardships and dangers faced by coal miners, the exploitation of labor, the impact of industrialization on workers' lives, and the need for social justice and reform. Owen sheds light on the sacrifices and struggles of miners while criticizing the societal structures that perpetuate their suffering.
Eighty-three miners were killed in an explosion at the Markham Colliery in Lancashire on December 19, 1930. Additionally, another tragic explosion occurred at the Lofthouse Colliery in Somerset on December 21, 1973, resulting in the deaths of 26 miners. Both incidents highlight the dangers faced by miners during that era.
