The OSMRE National Mine Map Repository holds scanned underground mine maps and answers requests for a named mine or an area. The Office of Miners Health Safety and Training keeps the legal Mine Map Archives, the final certified maps required since the 1968 Hominy Falls disaster, at minesafety.wv.gov/historical-statistical-data/west-virginia-mine-map-archives under Historical and Statistical Data.
