One person is dead and seven are missing after an accident in a coal mine in central China, according to state broadcaster CCTV.The "accidental outburst" occurred at a coal mine run by Henan Hebi Coal and Electricity CoIn a separate accident in Mexico, a coal mine accident has left seven miners trapped
The "accidental outburst" happened at a coal mine run by Henan Hebi Coal and Electricity Co on Friday, CCTV said.Last month, the provincial government said it had approved the reopening of another mine operated by Hebi after it was shut for not complying with regulations. China has been carrying out safety inspections at coal mines across the country, but record-high coal prices have miners ramping up production to meet supply gaps.
In May, China's Cabinet said it would work to stabilise rising commodity prices, while encouraging coal producers to boost production to meet global demand.An accident at a small-scale coal mine project in a northern Mexico border state left seven miners trapped on Friday, according to officials.
