HistoryThe settlement, located some 5 km from Sasolburg, is a former colliery, and was originally named Coalbrook, probably named after Coalbrookdale in England. It was the scene of the Coalbrook mining disaster on 21 January 1960; 435 workers were buried alive when the mine collapsed.[3] Richard Hse, a Taiwanese businessman, bought out the old mine village in October 1996, renamed it and turned the place into a hub of factories including clothing, shoes, stoves, wood and paper factories and a sportsfield.[2]References1. ^1 2 3 {{cite web |url=http://census2011.adrianfrith.com/place/478017 |title = Main Place Holly Country |work=Census 2011}} {{Fezile Dabi District Municipality}}{{FreeState-geo-stub}}2. ^1 {{cite news|title=Monument pays tribute to miners|url=http://www.news24.com/xArchive/Archive/Monument-pays-tribute-to-miners-20001104|accessdate=29 April 2013|newspaper=News24 South Africa|date=2000-11-04}} 3. ^{{cite web|title=Dictionary of Southern African Place Names (Public Domain)|url=https://archive.org/details/DictionaryOfSouthernAfricanPlaceNames|publisher=Human Science Research Council|page=118}} 1 : Populated places in the Metsimaholo Local Municipality |
