mining, process of extracting useful minerals from the surface of the Earth, including the seas. A mineral, with a few exceptions, is an inorganic substance occurring in nature that has a definite chemical composition and distinctive physical properties or molecular structure. (One organic substance, coal, is often discussed as a mineral as well.)

In December 2022, a similar collapse occurred in China's southwest Guizhou province.

These accidents can occur in both underground and surface mining operations. Some of the most common types of mining accidents that result in death include: Roof and Rib Falls: In underground mining, roof and rib falls occur when the overhead rock (roof) or the sidewalls (ribs) of a tunnel or shaft collapse unexpectedly.

In the estimated period between 2007 to 2012 a total of 36 mining industry fatalities occurred in Australia. This represented a fatality incidence of approximately 4 deaths per 100,000 workers during this time period.

These are the reasons behind most mining accidents: Methane and coal dust explosions: These have caused the most devastating accidents in mining history. The two worst accidents each killed over 1,000 people. The methane contained within coal mines can be ignited if proper safety measures are not taken. In turn, these can set off a coal dust ...

Results: There were statistically significant variations in coal mine accident types, types of work, injury sites, age, experience, months, and shifts (p < 0.001). Eight types of accidents were susceptible to the risk of injury, and the greatest risk was presented by roof-related accidents (odds ratio (OR) = 0.46, 95% confidence interval (CI ...
