Looking for information about black colored PMN mines

[ewag2]

Does anyone here know what countries produced the PMN mine in black? Black PMNs have been found in Iraq and one of these pictures is of a page from a Saddam-era Iraqi weapons catalogue. The other pic is of a black PMN with similar-looking, yet different markings.

Any info at all about black PMN-type mines would be appreciated, but I'm hoping that someone can identify the origin of the mine in the second picture. (I realized that I didn't make that clear in my original post.) The only markings on this mine are what can be seen on the pressure plate: 1-95

If you want an ID on anything, you need to show more that the rubber diaphragm on the top, like a side view, or Isometric or something else.

I have not paid any attention to Iraqi stuff for a while, but the markings look typical of either Chinese or Iraqi. I would generally lean towards Chinese, they certainly sold plenty of it to Iraq and the markings were often similar, but during the Gulf War we considered HGE as a domestic (Iraqi) marking for explosive, especially on the PG-7s. As I said, I have not paid any attention to the Iraq recoveries in the last 15 years or so, so this may have changed.

The reason I did not include any other pictures is because it looks just like any common PMN mine and other than the color and markings on top, there is nothing distinctive about its appearance. The body of the mine looks just like every other PMN mine out there, except that it's black instead of the more common brown color. I figured that the markings I show in the picture are the most likely avenue for finding out what country made this particular mine.

I can add more pictures if anyone on here is curious and would like to see more, but I doubt it would add much in terms of getting an ID.
