Coal mine cable car plunges, killing 20

The accident occurred just after midnight at a private mine run by Qusheng Coal Mining in Baiyin. The two-carriage cable car carrying 34 workers slipped backward and overturned after a steel wire pulling it up a 28-degree, 704-meter-long slope broke near the entrance of the pit, according to the city's Pingchuan district government.
