Coal supply crunch fuels safety concerns To meet the country's demand, many of Shanxi's coal miners, especially State-owned ones, are operating beyond their certified production capacity, a major threat to mine safety, Wang said. In the first half of the year, 46 mine incidents occurred in Shanxi, which resulted in 124 deaths. This number, however, was down 22 percent from the same period last year. "Overproduction has been a long-time threat to mine safety in Shanxi," said Liu Wenge, head of energy and safety division at China Coal Information Institute." http://www.chinadaily.com.cn/bizchina/2008-07/31/content_6893719.htm
