The February 8 Jiktong Youth Coal Mine under the Sunchon Area Youth Coal Mining Complex is pulsating with the spirit of innovation.
Sounds of rock-drills and blasting are heard from the faces. Conveyor belts are in full operation.
The officials, technicians and workers turned out as one to normalize the production of coal badly needed for the national economic development and the people’s livelihood at a high level in the new year, too.
The colliers give precedence to tunneling to secure coalfields with good mining conditions and achieve good results every day by introducing rational mining methods.
They conveyorized routes for haulage and run conveyor belts at full capacity to carry coal from the faces in time.
The coal mine is stepping up the technical updating project.
In a general production control room furnished in line with the demand of the IT age the status of production and coal output are grasped to organize and direct production on a scientific basis.
The coal mine introduced an advanced prospecting method to correctly gauge coal deposits and normalize the production. Anthracite boring machines, new prop power saws and timber supporter and water prospecting devices were made to introduce mechanization into mining on a comprehensive scale.
“Don’t worry about coal!”
The words reflect the hearts of the coal miners.
