Fire continues to burn at Lila Canyon coal mine in southeastern Utah
About 180 people work at the Lila Canyon coal mine, and authorities reported that all the miners were evacuated safely.
Charles Kocsis, the chairman of the Mining Engineering Department, said instances like this help companies understand how such events can be prevented in the future. He also added that this kind of fire, far away from where people live, does not seem to pose a threat to lives. In certain mine fires, there is a chance for explosions or carbon monoxide poisoning for the people trapped in the mines. But since that is not the case here, Kocsis said it shouldn’t be a cause for concern — but it’s still important to stay vigilant.
