Monument Miner's Glory, Bronze monument near Central Park in Karaganda, Kazakhstan.
The monument portrays two miners lifting a coal seam, standing on a pedestal made of concrete covered with polished granite blocks.
The monument was constructed in 1974 to mark the achievement of two million tons of coal production in the Karaganda mining region.
The sculpture represents both Russian and Kazakh miners working together, symbolizing the multicultural mining community of Karaganda during Soviet times.
