conspiracy to violate mine safety standards but acquitted of felony counts that could have sent him to prison for 30 years. anderson cooper has the story for "60 minutes." >> tremendous. i'm no expert, just from what i know of, what happened and the things that were torn up in there, had to be like an atomic explosion. stanley stewart worked at upper big branch mine for 15 years. he was 300 feet underground. just started his shift when the explosion occurred. i felt a little breeze of air coming from inside. i said, that's not right. well then it got harder. and we just took off running to the outside. and look, you could see the woosh just keep coming and coming. seemed like between, two and four minutes.

said, what happened? i said, the place blew up. >> reporter: the explosion occurred 1,000 feet underground and nearly three miles inside the mine. the photos taken by the mine safety and health administration have never been seen before and show the force of the blast. flames moving at more than 1,500 feet per second shot through more than 2 1/2 miles of underground tunnels. investigators believed the blast was caused by a spark that ignited methane gas that had built up due to inadequate ventilation. highly flammable coal dust allowed to accumulate throughout the mine fueled the explosion. >> it was early 1900 type of explosion. conditions should never have existed for that to take place. stewart was there when some of the 29 miners he worked side by side with for decades were brought to the surface. >> what kind of condition were they in? >> their faces were very black. and it smelled like -- like,

i'll never forget that smell. >> the miners ranged in age from 20 to 61. most were fathers. a third were killed instantly. robert atkins, a former coal miner and wife shareen lost son jason at the end of his shift heading toward the mine entrance when he was overcome by toxic fuels. >> the coal dust was so bad it carried, ignited, away and took our son's life who was almost out of the mines. >> reporter: gary quarrels, third generation coal miner lost his only child gary wayne who left behind two children. >> they live up beside us. at times we thought that wasn't a good thing for that to be like that. and then after he -- -- after he got killed i said that's, that was a good thing. >> reporter: gary says he and his son never talked about

mines. blankenship wouldn't do an interview with "60 minutes" for years he condoned and tolerated safety violations for the sack of profit. >> right up until the time the mine blew, that was the way the company was ran, everyone understood. >> the corporate mentality that he instilled. >> that was the culture. >> profits over safety. >> he set the tone. he set the corporate culture. >> reporter: despite receiving daily reports of the high number of safety violations, prosecutors argued, blankenship did little to correct them because upper big branch was a moneymaker for massey earning $600,000 a day. and blankenship's pay was directly tide to every foot of coal mined. in his last three years at massey, blankenship's total compensation was $80 million. >> the men and women we talked to who work in the mine say the was absolutely understood and

that mine, you were going to break the law in order to produce as much coal as possible as fast as and as cheaply as possible. >> everything was produce, produce, produce. it didn't make any difference of the dangers, it didn't make any difference if you had to take short cuts. it was all about put the coal on the belt. >> the only female miner at upper big branch and wasn't working the day of the explosion, but her fiance boon payne was. he died in the blast. bobby said she and boon worried every day the mine was an accident waiting to happen. >> everybody knew there were problems. everybody knew there were safety, use? >> absolutely. we all knew. >> was there enough air in the

>> our section never had air. >> reporter: ventilation is critical to mine safety. fresh air carries explosive coal dust and methane out of the area where miners work. without adequate ventilation and proper clean-up, coal dust accumulates and is not only highly flammable, it can cause black lung disease. which most of the miners killed in the explosion were later found to have. >> lot of times we wouldn't have any ventilation at all. front of your face. you could not see your hand in front of your face? >> did not see your hand in >> there is not fresh air moving through it. >> all dust. >> all dust. >> prosecutors showed jurors the pumps miners were to wear to measure intake of coal dust. at upper big branch. they were routinely instructed by their bosses to cheat on the test by hanging the pumps in the fresh air. >> so your measurements when they were tested came in compliant with the law. >> reporter: federal mine inspectors visited upper big branch almost daily. prosecutors said the mine had an illegal advance warning system in place. security guard at the entrance would relay messages to miners underground alerting them an inspector was coming. >> they would use code words. >> say it was bad weather. >> bad weather. let you know if he is coming

way. >> you would get word from above. inspector is coming. they would use code word. and basically clean up your area to make it look right. >> yep. >> upper big branch was a nonunion mine. inspectors were the only people miners could turn to for help. but they said word was out they shouldn't be seen talking to inspectors. >> was there fear of speaking up? >> itch you wanted your job, you kempt your mouth shuttle. me like a lot of other miners, mining is the only industry. biggest industry in the state of west virginia. you have children, you want them to have. you know you want to provide for them. i was a single mom. >> reporter: you needed that job.

>> some of the stories that they have to tell are horrifying. being forced to work without fresh air. being forced to work in water up to their necks. miles underground. being forced to work in areas where the roof and the walls of the mine were falling in. around them. >> reporter: prosecutors say blankenship was aware of all of the safety problems because he was a micromanager who had oversight over every aspect of massey mines. personally approving every hire, hourly raise and capital expenditure. >> he wanted everybody in the company to know he was in charge. >> do it don's way. i expect you to do what i tell-up to do when i still you to do it. >> reporter: his message to managers? >> absolutely. time and again. that's on tape. >> this game is about money. >> the message was repeated and emphasized by don blankenship in phone conversations with mine managers he recorded on machines
