Default Banks Mining Diamond (E2) outcrop

That 'Diamond' (E2) seam was worked at Ellington with some sort of secondary extraction process they called 'Diamond tops' or 'Diamond topping' This was the removal of a coal roof after the rest of the seam had been extracted by the usual methods.

I can't remember the details, wish I paid more attention now.
