The new arms show a checky field and a piece of a cogwheel. Together with the stamps in the crest, this referred to the mining in the area, which by the time (in 1964) had already ceased to exist and the mines were closed.

In an earlier version, two flamingoes were prpoposed as supporters, but this was not finalised. All other former elements were eliminated. | The new arms show a checky field and a piece of a cogwheel.
