The Monument is dedicated to the death of thousand of miners in the Stockham incident. The Stockham mine was a platinum mine just outside of Malton founded in July 18 1935. It yielded extremely high grade platinum and was the workplace for many of Maltons' citizens. But in 1956 October 3the mine violently exploded killing all of the workers. the source of the explosion is uncertain. some believe drilling into a natural gas reserve was the cause, other think a missplased dynamite explosion caused it, still other say that a rival company sabotaged the mine.
