History
Originating in Wonthaggi and its nearby State Coal Mine, the Victorian Coal Miners' Association was officially registered in 1907 but was deregistered by 1914. Its members however, were quickly absorbed into the newly formed Australasian Coal Miners' Association that same year. In 1916 this union changed its name to the Australasian Coal and Shale Employees' Federation which operated until 1990.
