Globally, the Draft Statement of property also demonstrates a significant contribution to the development of knowledge in deep mining technology, in particular, underground mining in tropical climates. Outstanding Universal Value A. Brief Synthesis Criterion (iv): Ombilin Coal Mining Heritage of Sawahlunto is an outstanding, globally precedent- Ombilin Coal Mining Heritage of Sawahlunto is a representative and outstanding setting example of a technological ensemble designed for maximum efficiency in the example of a pioneering technological ensemble planned and built by European extraction of a key, strategic natural resource – in this case industrial grade coal. It engineers in their colonies designed to extract strategic coal resources. Not only is the illustrates development characteristic of the later stage of global industrialisation in the property of outstanding universal value because it demonstrates pioneering second half of the 19th century and early 20th century, when discreet engineering technological developments, fusing European engineering knowledge with local technologies only loosely connected heretofore where integrated into complex, environmental wisdom and traditional practices in the organisation of labour, it also seamless, efficient systems of production giving rise to an exponential expansion of exemplifies the profound and lasting impact of the changes in social relations of society's manufacturing base, leading to the globalised economy of industry and production imposed by the European colonial powers in their colonies, which provided commerce of modern times. The engineering technologies concerned – deep bore both the material and labour inputs that underpinned the world-wide industrialisation of vertical tunnelling of mine shafts, mechanical ore washing and sorting, steam th th the second half of the 19 century and early 20 century. locomotion and rack railway, inclined and reverse-arc rail bridge construction, rock-blast railroad tunnels, deep-dredge harbours, and coal storage in climate-controlled silos – Built to exploit the exceedingly rich Ombilin coal deposits, located in the inaccessible were complemented, indeed rendered viable, through the integrating agency of mountains of west-central-Sumatra, Indonesia, the Ombilin Coal Mining Heritage of company organization, which included the construction of a purpose-built, planned Sawahlunto is an extensive technological ensemble consisting of twelve component modern mining town of more than 7000 inhabitants complete with all facilities – parts in three functionally-related areas, consisting of (a) open pit mines and labyrinthine housing, food service, health, education, spiritual, and recreational – designed to cater underground mining tunnels together with on-site coal processing facilities, supported to a strictly hierarchical structure of industrialisation division of labour . by a full-facility purpose-built mining town nearby at Sawahlunto; (b) an ingeniously- engineered rack mountain railway together with numerous rail bridges and tunnels, linking the mines to the coastal seaport, across 155 kilometres of the rugged mountain terrain; and (c) a dredged and ambitiously enlarged harbour and newly-constructed seaport at Emmahaven on Sumatra's Indian Ocean coast from where the coal was transhipped throughout the Netherlands East Indies and to Europe.

Brief Synthesis Criterion (iv): Ombilin Coal Mining Heritage of Sawahlunto is an outstanding, globally precedent- Ombilin Coal Mining Heritage of Sawahlunto is a representative and outstanding setting example of a technological ensemble designed for maximum efficiency in the example of a pioneering technological ensemble planned and built by European extraction of a key, strategic natural resource – in this case industrial grade coal. It engineers in their colonies designed to extract strategic coal resources. Not only is the illustrates development characteristic of the later stage of global industrialisation in the property of outstanding universal value because it demonstrates pioneering second half of the 19th century and early 20th century, when discreet engineering technological developments, fusing European engineering knowledge with local technologies only loosely connected heretofore where integrated into complex, environmental wisdom and traditional practices in the organisation of labour, it also seamless, efficient systems of production giving rise to an exponential expansion of exemplifies the profound and lasting impact of the changes in social relations of society's manufacturing base, leading to the globalised economy of industry and production imposed by the European colonial powers in their colonies, which provided commerce of modern times. The engineering technologies concerned – deep bore both the material and labour inputs that underpinned the world-wide industrialisation of vertical tunnelling of mine shafts, mechanical ore washing and sorting, steam th th the second half of the 19 century and early 20 century. locomotion and rack railway, inclined and reverse-arc rail bridge construction, rock-blast railroad tunnels, deep-dredge harbours, and coal storage in climate-controlled silos – Built to exploit the exceedingly rich Ombilin coal deposits, located in the inaccessible were complemented, indeed rendered viable, through the integrating agency of mountains of west-central-Sumatra, Indonesia, the Ombilin Coal Mining Heritage of company organization, which included the construction of a purpose-built, planned Sawahlunto is an extensive technological ensemble consisting of twelve component modern mining town of more than 7000 inhabitants complete with all facilities – parts in three functionally-related areas, consisting of (a) open pit mines and labyrinthine housing, food service, health, education, spiritual, and recreational – designed to cater underground mining tunnels together with on-site coal processing facilities, supported to a strictly hierarchical structure of industrialisation division of labour . by a full-facility purpose-built mining town nearby at Sawahlunto; (b) an ingeniously- engineered rack mountain railway together with numerous rail bridges and tunnels, linking the mines to the coastal seaport, across 155 kilometres of the rugged mountain terrain; and (c) a dredged and ambitiously enlarged harbour and newly-constructed seaport at Emmahaven on Sumatra's Indian Ocean coast from where the coal was transhipped throughout the Netherlands East Indies and to Europe.

Statement of Authenticity and natural features of the property.

Ombilin Coal Mining Heritage of Sawahlunto, is a technological ensemble consisting of twelve component parts. All parts of this multi-component technological ensemble – mines, mining town, railway, and port – have an extremely high degree of authenticity retaining their as-built original form and design, materials and substance, location and setting, management system, use and function. In addition, all twenty-four physical attributes contained with the twelve component parts of the property are authentic in their materiality, unchanged in form, and functionally intact as originally planned and first constructed by the Ombilin Mining Company. A systematic programme of regular condition assessment and routine maintenance, in place since the time of their construction, has resulted in an acceptable state of conservation of all component parts and attributes of the property, sustaining the authenticity of the property and the original structures contained therein.
