DUBLIN–(BUSINESS WIRE)–The "Coal,
Lignite, and Anthracite Mining Market Global Briefing 2017"

report has been added to Research and Markets' offering.

Coal, Lignite, And Anthracite Mining Market Global Briefing covers
market characteristics, size and growth, segmentation, regional
breakdowns, competitive landscape, market shares, trends and strategies
for this market.

Coal mines are prone to hazards and mining companies are increasingly
focusing on technologies to prevent accidents and improve the safety of
miners. Government regulations, and health and safety standards
developed by international mining groups also promote efficient safety
practices. Some of the reasons for the occurrence of accidents in mining
include ineffective drilling, blasting, loading and hauling, leaking out
of poisonous methane gas, coal dust, and machinery collisions.

Asia Pacific was the largest region in the coal, lignite, and anthracite
mining market in 2016, accounting for around 70% of the market. This was
mainly due to large population and manufacturing activities in the
region, thereby having high coal demand for power generation, and steel
and cement production. According to World Coal Association, China, India
and Japan burn around 71% of the world's fresh coal mined. Western
Europe was the second largest region accounting for around 9% of the
market. Middle East was the smallest region accounting for less than 1%
of the market. This can be attributed to the limited population and the
availability of other energy sources such as oil.
