It said 436 miners were working underground when the accident occurred at Shanxi Jiaomei Group's Tunlan mine in Gujiao City near Taiyuan, the provincial capital. Xinhua said 114 miners were taken to hospital, where 44 died. A rescuer said some of the trapped miners had managed to phone their relatives. No other details were available. The gas explosion happened the day after senior provincial officials held a conference about mine safety, in which they pledged to try to put an end to deadly mining accidents. China's mining industry is the world's most dangerous. A total of 3,786 coal miners died in gas blasts, floodings and other accidents in 2007 as companies, often flouting safety regulations, rushed to feed demand from a booming economy. The number of deaths fell to 2,690 in the first 10 months of 2008 after thousands of small unsafe mines across the country were closed. China is continuing to push for the closure of small mines, many of which are struggling to remain open because demand from the electricity and steel sectors, their main customers, has slumped in recent months. The mine where Sunday's blast took place produces coking coal for the steel industry and can produce 5 million tonnes a year, Xinhua said. © Thomson Reuters 2009 All rights reserved Share: Del.icio.us Digg Mixx My Web Facebook LinkedIn Next Article: Australia mourns victims of bushfire disaster Digital music services flunk college test Slideshow Slideshow: Festivities at the Vienna Ball No sign of recession at pre-Oscar gift suites More International News Australia mourns victims of bushfire disaster Chavez and Castros hold talks in Havana Clinton ends China visit with church, Web chat | Video Pakistani Taliban say Swat ceasefire to be reviewed Tens of thousands march against cutbacks in Ireland More International News...
