AT least nine people were killed in a coal mine accident that had been covered up for five days in northeast China's Heilongjiang Province, a provincial work safety official said yesterday.
The mine owner confessed the miners had been killed in the accident in coal-rich Jixi City's Didao District on April 26, the official said.
A provincial investigation team arrived in Jixi on Saturday in response to rumors of an explosion that had killed about 10 people.
A family member of one of the victims, however, said the accident was a gas leak.
The privately owned mine was suspected of illegal production as it had been ordered to close for renovation. The mine has a designed production capacity of 40,000 tons.
