5月12日在芦溪县源南乡出现的地陷,一开始并未让当地人感到恐惧,因为他们对地面塌陷早已经习以为常,除了这个看似巧合的时间点。在江西地质监测总站的报告中,地震这个因素并未忽略。然而除了岩溶地貌和地震这两个自然的地陷诱发因素外,当地村民更倾向于地陷的主因是煤矿采挖。在这个以煤为生的小乡里,煤矿扮演了双重角色。 The subsidence that occurred on May 12 in Yuannan Township, Luxi County did not initially give the locals a sense of fright, as they have long accustomed to the collapse of the land, except at this point of coincidence. In Jiangxi Geological Monitoring Station report, the earthquake did not ignore this factor. However, except for karst landforms and earthquakes, which are two natural causes of subsidence, the main reason why local villagers are prone to subsidence is coal mining. Coal mines play a dual role in this small coal-dependent village.
