FOUR miners have been confirmed dead, after a coal mine tunnel collapsed yesterday afternoon in northeast China's Liaoning Province, the local authorities said today.

The provincial coal mine safety department said the accident happened at 4 pm yesterday in Caitun Coal Mine in Benxi City, when seven workers were working under the tunnel. Three of them managed to escape.

The state-controlled coal mine, which turned out 600,000 tons last year, was under renovation when the accident happened. The provincial coal mine safety department has set up a working group to investigate into the accident.
