Nine men were killed in a horrific explosion in the gold mine, where aggressive strikebreaking, paramilitary policing and union militancy had combined to turn a labor dispute into an intractable conflict. Updated to include the appeal trial of Roger Warren, the man convicted of killing his co-workers.
