Cape Breton Miners Museum
We are looking for photos of the miners in the #26coliery explosion 1979. The artist commissioned to create the monument for us wants to use them to create similarities in the statue. If you have a photo of these men or know a family member who does please forward them to the Cape Breton Miners Museum. Either info@minersmuseum.com or PO Box 310, Glace Bay B1A 5T8.
