- Se conocen como desastre minero de Springhill a cualquiera de los tres desastres de minería canadienses ocurridos en 1891, 1956 y 1958 en diferentes minas dentro del yacimiento de carbón de Springhill, cerca del pueblo de Springhill en el condado de Cumberland, Nueva Escocia. Las minas en el yacimiento de carbón de Springhill fueron establecidas en el siglo XIX y a inicios de 1880 se empezaron a trabajar por la Compañía Ltd de Carbón y Ferrocarril Cumberland y la Compañía Ltd de Ferrocarril & Carbón Parrsboro & Springhill. Estas entidades se unieron en 1884 para formar la Compañía Ltd de Carbón y Ferrocarril Cumberland, la cual sus inversores la vendieron en 1910 al conglomerado industrial Compañía Ltd Dominio de Carbón (DOMCO). Siguiendo el tercer desastre en 1958, el operador Dominio de Acero & Corporación de Carbón Ltd. (DOSCO), luego una subsidiaria de la A.V. Compañía Ltd Canadiense Roe, terminó sus operaciones de minería en Springhill y nunca fueron reabiertas. A partir de 2015 las propiedades de la mina, entre las más profundos en el mundo y llenas de agua, pertenecen al gobierno de Nueva Escocia y proveen al parque industrial Springhill con calefacción geotérmica.

In the 1891 accident, 125 died; in 1956, 39 were killed; and in 1958, there were 75 miners killed. The mines in the Springhill coalfield were established in the 19th century, and by the early 1880s were being worked by the Cumberland Coal & Railway Company Ltd. and the Springhill & Parrsboro Coal & Railway Company Ltd. These entities merged in 1884 to form the Cumberland Railway & Coal Company Ltd., which its investors sold in 1910 to the industrial conglomerate Dominion Coal Company Ltd. (DOMCO). Following the third disaster in 1958, the operator Dominion Steel & Coal Corporation Ltd. (DOSCO), then a subsidiary of the A.V. Roe Canada Company Ltd., shut its mining operations in Springhill, and they were never reopened. As of 2015 the mine properties, among the deepest works in the world, with the No. 2 mine reaching 14,300 feet. Now filled with water, are owned by the government of Nova Scotia, and provide Springhill's industrial park with geothermal heating. (en)
