Although I am not very acquainted with the stamps world, I am very interested in finding stamps having to do with mining. I could not find any mining subject in this forum, so I am asking to see if someone can redirect me to a place where I can find such topic. I would be very grateful if someone could post scans of mining-themed stamps.

That it the first time I have seen that Canada stamp referred to as coal mining. It is a generic mining image and suggests hard rock to me, not coal. |
