The table shows the
number
of deep coal mines
in the UK between 1913 and 2015. Obviously, there is a decline over the period. We can say that coal mines
almost disappeared and there were only 5 left in 2015.
In 1913, there were 3024 deep coal mines
but this
number
began to decrease. The number
of mines
fell sharply and consistently over the subsequent years. Nevertheless
, in 1943 there were 1690 mines
left. This
means that in a period of thirty years, the number
of mines
had almost halved. By 1963, this
figure had virtually halved again.
Surprisingly, in the 1980s we see another huge reduction, with the number
falling to around 20% of 1963 levels. By the time the current century began, there had been another decrease. In 2003, the number
of deep mines
producing coal dropped to 20. At last
, we see that there are only 5 mines
left.
In conclusion, there was a decreasing trend in mining in Britain for the duration of the period shown in the chart.Submitted by aakbarov2010 on
