A coal-mine explosion in the northeastern Chinese province of Heilongjiang has slaughtered 37 miners and ensnared 71, China Central Television reported on its Web site.

The explosion occurred at 2:30 a.m. at Xinxing mine where 528 miners were toiling, the State Administration of Work Safety said on its Web site. Rescue actions are below way, according to the statement.

The explosion reduced the mine’s ventilation and communication system, generating it difficult for rescue, CCTV said.

China relies on coal to generate 80 per 100 of its electricity. A coal-mine explosion in the southwestern Chinese city of Chongqing on May 30 slaughtered 30 people enlisted and another coal- mine detonation in Shanxi province on Feb. 22 withdrew 74 miners dead, according to the government.
