The fourth and final miner trapped underground in a flooded Swansea Valley colliery has been found dead.
The men were working 90m (295ft) below the surface in Gleision Colliery near Pontardawe on Thursday morning when tragedy struck.
The bodies of Charles Breslin, 62, David Powell, 50, Garry Jenkins, 39, and Phillip Hill, 45, who all lived locally, were discovered on Friday.
Around 200 rescuers have been involved over the two days.
Three other miners managed to escape as the flood water engulfed the drift mine when a retaining wall holding back a body of water underground failed.
