A gas explosion ripped through a coal mine in northern China on Sunday, killing at least 74 miners and trapping dozens, state media said. It was the country's deadliest coal mine accident in more than a year. China's mines are the world's most dangerous with more than 3,000 deaths a year in fires, floods and explosions. The pre-dawn blast occurred while 436 workers were in the Tunlan Coal Mine in Gujiao city near Taiyuan, the capital of Shanxi province, the official Xinhua News Agency said. At least 74 miners died and 114 others were hospitalized, including six in critical condition, Xinhua said. It did not say how many workers remained trapped in the shaft but earlier reports said 65 were still underground...

Question a friend, perhaps he did not do it; but if he did anything so that he may do it no more.
A hasty quarrel kindles fire,
and urgent strife sheds blood.
If you blow on a spark, it will glow;
if you spit on it, it will be put out;
and both come out of your mouth

China's mines are the world's most dangerous with more than 3,000 deaths a year in fires, floods and explosions.
Precisely. Very often it is not much attention to possible repares. Lord, have mercy. Dear Lord, grant the eternal rest to the victims. St. Thaddeus, a great helper of those in the most critical situations, please intercede to the Lord. Sts. Martyrs of Boxer Rebellion, please help to save lives and souls. |
