Kickstarting the new year with a #MiningLandscape. An Xmas tradition for Catherine when she is south of the border it’s either walk to Cobb’s Engine House, Rowley Regis in the #BlackCountry if it’s dry, or up and down the 1.7 miles of #Netherton #canal tunnel if it’s wet. 2025 was dry.

A panoramic, wide angle photograph in colour, signed by Kev Peirce, showing a massive open cut mine. The image captures the immense scale of the excavation, with distinct, stepped layers (benches) visible along the sides of the pit, highlighting the geology and mining method. The base of the mine is a mix of dark, excavated material and two pools of stagnant, yellowish green water. The surrounding landscape is arid and flat under a clear, pale blue sky, emphasising the isolation and the environmental impact of the operation.
The scale of extraction: Deep into the open cut mine at Leigh Creek.
Leigh Creek, South Australia.
