Term · Industrial and trades · MLC-T-IND-005992

The wreckage left by a roof fall in a coal mine: the broken rock that comes down over a worked area when the pillars and stalls have been taken out. With the pillars that held up the roof gone, the strata above break and settle into the void, and the resulting heap of fallen rock is the thurst.
