Latest China mine disaster kills 4, traps 50

An accident at a colliery in central China has killed four miners and trapped 50, state media said on Friday, in the latest disaster to hit the accident-prone industry.
The "rock burst" - a sudden rupture of the rock face common in the mining industry - occurred at the pit in Henan province while 75 miners were working underground, though 14 managed to escape soon after, Xinhua news agency reported.
Seven others were later rescued alive and emergency workers were trying to get the others out, the China News Service added.
China's mines are the deadliest in the world, due to lax safety standards and a rush to feed demand from a robust economy.
