Coal is one of the most precious mineral resource, mining and mineral processing contributesto the economic development. In Vietnam, coal mining industry is economically profitable. However, thisindustry shows several disadvantages such as low productivity, wasting resources, negative environmentalimpact. Therefore, the State of Vietnam need to improve the coal mining governance to raise revenues,avoid wasting resources and meet the requirements of sustainable development. The paper aims toevaluate State governance of coal mining industry in Vietnam, and shows the advantages anddisadvantages of this governance. Therefore, this paper proposes the strategies and solutions to improvecoal mining governance in Vietnam towards sustainable development. The structure of the paper includes:(i) Literature review of the importance and requirements of state governance of coal mining industrytowards sustainable development; (ii) State governance of coal mining industry in Vietnam; (iii) Proposalsto improve State governance of coal mining industry towards sustainable development in Vietnam.

The coal-mining industry ensures its sustainable development by forming the complex regional environment, embracing urban, social, cultural, linguistic, and academic components. The environment eventually exerts itself in a number of outcomes. It makes up a multiform regional cogniosphere (i.e. noosphere, ideosphere, logosphere, semiosphere, conceptosphere) responsible for increasing the regional population’s awareness of the coal mining specifics, as well as forms positive attitudes to the mining sector of economy and mining professions, and finally forges the regional identity. The environment is responsible for increasing the popularity of professional coal-mining education which enables the stability and survivability of the mining professions and efficient personnel change in due time. The environment affects adjacent economic spheres (tourism, service, recreation, production, etc.) so as they can make use of the regional specific features and diversify their products and services. Thus, the coal-mining industry and the above mentioned environment form a closed-cycle system whose constituents affect each other mutually and ensure efficient coexistence and development. The cultural, linguistic, and urban environment of the region can be viewed as additional means of supporting and promoting sustainable development of the regional economy and culture through its manipulative potential.

The mechanism for Ukrainian coal mining industry's sustainable development management has been formed as a result of the study. Significant losses in the process of coal mining are proved to be one of the coal mining industry problems. It has been specified that the reserve for the industry's efficiency upgrading in the framework of more resource-saving behaviour is funding of mines reconstruction. Slowdown in the coal mining industry development has been determined to be the result of military operation in Donets'k and Luhans'k regions. The inefficiency of transport logistics for coal resources imported by Ukraine has been proved, since the rail freight transport is favored instead of cheaper maritime transport due to the underdeveloped quality of port infrastructure. Balancing mining, production of coal raw materials and their subsequent use in the production processes have been proved to be the ways to ensure rational use of coal resources of Ukraine. The processes for coking coal is metal production, and for anthracite – thermal energy production. Relationship between growth rates of coking coal mining and production, coke mining, exports and imports of coke and ironmaking during 2008– 2017s have been studied. It has been demonstrated that imports of coking coal essentially depends on the market pricing and has little to do with the needs of the metallurgical industry of Ukraine. It has been shown that the system for rational use of coking coal's capacity in Ukraine should include balancing flows of coal mining, coke and semi-coke mining according to the needs of national metallurgical industry, taking into account cyclical nature of its development. The necessity of coordinating the volumes of anthracite extraction, production and consumption and taking into account short cycles of heat power development have been defined.

This study examines how the competing concerns of environmental effects and economic development were used to frame the news coverage of mountaintop coal mining in community and metro papers in Kentucky and West Virginia, regions heavily dependent on the coal-mining industry.

The circular economy is the economic model that has been applied for a long time in theworld. This model is applied at all three levels: micro (enterprise-level), intermediate (industry level,industrial zone level), and macro-level (local level, regional level, or national level). Vietnamese CoalMining Industry has been having important contributions to the socio-economic development ofVietnam. However, this industry also causes lots of issues about environmental pollution. In the contextof resource depletion, environmental pollution and the cost of exploiting and processing increases withthe deep exploiting process; the tastes of utilizing resources, minimizing environmental pollution, andcreating more value-added for this industry are inevitable requirements. Because of the tasks, applyingthe circular economy model into this industry (both intermediate and micro-level) is the urgent solutionfor the sustainable development of the Vietnamese Coal Mining Industry. The paper uses a combinationof research methods such as theoretical research, case study research, statistical data analysis, etc., topropose the circular economy model for the Vietnamese Coal Mining Industry and some solutions todeploy this model into the industry's operations towards sustainable development.
