You have a script setup to make regular snapshots so that if you accidentally 
delete something you can get it back from an older snapshot.  The snapshots 
keep the storage space for the files in use.  If you wait a few weeks the 
space will be freed as newer snapshots without those 47G of files replace the 
old ones with them.

Alternatively you can delete some of the snapshots manually.
