China's October coal output slightly decreased due to increased safety inspections, but a year-over-year increase of 3.8% was recorded. The emergency management ministry called for curbs on over-production, and China's top coal production hub, Shanxi, announced heightened safety checks for the fourth quarter. The winter weather is expected to hinder operations, preventing production from reaching new highs.
