From the opening and reform, the coal industry has rapidly developed, its output is on continuous increase, its production technical level is gradually enhanced, the work safety conditions of coal mines are also improved, and the coal industry has played an important role in the national economy and social development. However, there still exist many prominent problems in the development of the coal industry, such as the illogical structure, extensive growth pattern, low scientific and technological level, recurring safety accidents, serious waste of resources, retarded environmental control as well as many other problems left over by history. Along with the development of national economy, the demand on coal is on the rise, therefore the resources, environment and safety pressure will be further increased.
