Шаблон:Infobox union The Cannock Chase Miners', Enginemen's and Surfacemen's Association was a trade union representing coal miners working the Cannock Chase Coalfield in the Cannock Chase area of England.

The union was founded in 1876.[1] Albert Stanley became the leader of the union in 1884, and he put it on a much sounder footing.[2] In 1886, it became a founder constituent of the Midland Counties Miners' Federation, through which it subsequently became part of the Miners' Federation of Great Britain (MFGB).[1] The association registered as a union with the Board of Trade in 1887, and at that point Stanley was officially appointed as general secretary.[2] Membership of the union grew steadily, reaching 7,500 in 1907.[3]

In 1945, the union became the Cannock Chase District of the Midland Area of the National Union of Mineworkers, with far less autonomy than before.[4] A couple of years later, it absorbed the Pelsall District.[5]
