Pyongyang, January 11 (KCNA) — Last year, several coal mines in the western area of the DPRK completed the belt conveyor-laying projects for increasing carrying capacity.

The Wolbong Coal Mine conducted the belt conveyor-laying project extending one thousand and hundreds of meters to open up a prospect for increasing coal production.

The February 8 Jikdong Youth Coal Mine and the Chonsong Youth Coal Mine, too, carried out the belt conveyor-laying projects to provide favorable conditions for carrying coal from the pits in time.
