Seems to have gone through a name change or two. South Wallsend Colliery, later Cardiff Borehole Colliery. Or were they two different collierys? See photo at www.lakemac.com.au/pagephoto.aspx?&pid=482&vid=17...

Lymington Colliery was also at Cardiff South, NSW

Is that a bottle of "a little something" in the helmet?
Vincenzo Diana said:

Bryan# It would seem so, but can anyone identify what the "little something" could be?
inconclusive canvas said:
I think it's cigarettes
Bryan# said:
Cigarettes - possibly - but why take them down a wet mine where they might get ruined and you could not smoke them. Anyone taking a match down a coal mine in the North East of England would be an absolute pariah. Too many men had died due to explosions of firedamp. There again; maybe he was an above ground worker.
