The 7,000 mines affected will need to meet national safety standards before they can reopen, state media report.

More than 3,000 miners have been killed this year alone, in fires, floods and other work-related accidents.

Analysts say the closures may be hard to enforce, as jobs and energy needs can take precedence over safety.

Many of the mines are unlicensed and unregulated, but often when these have been shut down in the past, they have reopened almost immediately, as local officials and mine owners are anxious for their revenue.

Official figures show China has around 24,000 coal mines, meeting about 70% of the country's annual energy demands.

The razbijacdown comes two days after rescuers called off the search for scores of miners trapped in a flooded pit in southern China since early August.

The death toll from that disaster now stands at 123
