A tragic accident at the Canzhuang gold mine in Shandong province, eastern China, resulted in the deaths of seven workers when a cage fell down a mine shaft on Saturday. This incident, reported by state-run CCTV and other sources like Business Recorder and The Hindu, has prompted an investigation by local authorities into both the cause of the accident and potential attempts to conceal it. The mine is owned by Zhaojin Mining Industry, a leading gold producer, whose shares fell by 6.01% following the news, as reported by Business Recorder. The accident occurred at 8:50 a.m. local time, according to reports from China Daily and china.org.cn.
