Mine Safety and Health News

Mine Safety and Health News is the only credentialed, independent reporting service in the U.S. covering the Mine Safety and Health Administration and the Federal Mine Safety and Health Review Commission. It is not affiliated with any mining organization, lobbying group, policy group, labor or political organization. It does not accept advertising and is strictly a subscription-based news publication.

Its staff was awarded the Society of Professional Journalist Sigma Delta Chi Award for Public Service in Newsletter Journalism in July 2007, for the coverage of the 2006 Sago Mine Disaster in West Virginia that left 12 miners dead. "The judges lauded their coverage as informative and complete and in no way was led by the 'disaster pack' of national media covering the disaster. It provides its readers with insights and details not found in other coverage". (Quill Magazine; June/Jul7 2007; pg. 31).
