This study seeks to determine the patterns of these accidents by examining the characteristicsof an accidents database, considering regional, temporal, mining method, and classification distribution characteristics. The analysis centers on all significant coal accidents (involving three or more fatalities) that occurredin China from 2017 to 2022, as documented in China’s (excluding Hong Kong, Macao, and Taiwan) national coalmining safety accident report. Over the most recent six years, roof falls and gas explosions have emerged as themost common types of accident. Case studies were conducted to comprehensively investigate the histories andunderlying causes of these incidents. Countermeasures are proposed from three perspectives: prospective measures, optimization strategies, and enterprise management.展开更多
