Coal mine disasters
Coal mine disasters are tragic events caused by hazards like explosions, collapses, or toxic gas releases that lead to significant loss of life and injuries among miners. These accidents often result from failures in safety measures, equipment malfunction, or natural underground conditions such as methane buildup. They highlight the risks inherent in underground mining and emphasize the importance of rigorous safety protocols, monitoring systems, and emergency preparedness to protect workers and prevent such tragedies.
