WATCH: The last active hard coal mine in Czech Republic | ABS-CBN News

Media were permitted to tour a Czech coal mine, the last in the country producing anthracite, also referred to as hard or black coal. The CSM mine, operated by Ostrava-Karvinska Mines in the village of Stonava near the town of Karvina, has been open since 1968 but will cease operations by the end of 2025. The Czech Republic and Poland were the only two European Union members still mining hard coal as of 2020, according to the EU's statistics agency Eurostat, with Czech production accounting for just four percent of the EU total. - Report from Reuters For more ABS-CBN News videos, click the link below: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLgyY1WylJUmgUHWUpi2ioSp4xAP1SmAaf For more latest news and analysis from ABS-CBN News videos, click the link below: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLgyY1WylJUmg4pcvfM9a96rbUcLD_0P_U For more News Digital News Raw Cuts, click the link below: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLgyY1WylJUmi83yKJH8Dv0p_3D4cyZKzV Subscribe to the ABS-CBN News channel! - http://bit.ly/TheABSCBNNews Watch the full episodes of TV Patrol on iWantTFC: http://bit.ly/TVPatrol-iWantTFC Visit our website at http://news.abs-cbn.com Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/abscbnNEWS Twitter: https://twitter.com/abscbnnews #Exclusive #LatestNews #ABSCBNNews
