关闭的两个煤矿井分别是七台河市建国煤矿和茄子河区宏泰矿业公司三井煤矿，生产能力为6万吨/年。七台河市市长贾军表示，对两个达不到产能规模要求的小煤矿进行破坏性关闭，体现了政府对落后产能小煤矿“真正退出”、“真正淘汰”的坚定态度。在鼓励释放优质产能的同时加快淘汰煤炭落后产能，提高煤矿安全生产保障能力，促进行业转型升级和持续健康发展。
Qitaihe city is one of the four major coal producing cities in Heilongjiang Province, with 134 coal mines of various types. Qitaihe city plans to close 56 small coal mines before the end of this year. By the end of 2020, the number of reserved mines in the city will be reduced to 67, with a reduction ratio of more than 50%.
Zhao Feiya, the owner of Jianguo Coal Mine and chairman of Qitaihe Lanfeng Mining Co., Ltd., expressed his understanding and support for the measures to shut down small coal mines. He said that after the elimination of backward small coal mines, enterprises can concentrate manpower, material resources and financial resources to build qualified coal mines, which is conducive to improving production efficiency and ensuring safe production.
针对煤炭行业“小、散、乱”现象和安全事故频发问题，黑龙江省今年启动了煤炭行业淘汰落后产能、化解过剩产能专项整治工作，要求鸡西市、鹤岗市、双鸭山市、七台河市等全省四大产煤市年产15万吨以下小煤矿全部关闭， 要在今年年底前关闭退出，到2020年地方煤矿全部储备矿井提高到30万吨/年以上。
黑龙江省在加快小煤矿关闭退出的同时，部署各地加强对正常生产矿井的监管，彻底消除安全隐患；要求有关部门对需要升级的矿井加快储量核实、采矿许可证、产能置换、项目备案等审批流程，保障行业正常生产秩序，提高煤炭供应能力和水平。
