3.3% Methane (CH4) leakage & CH4 105 times worse than CO2 as a GHG => gas dirtier than coal GHG-wise

Do you have any data on production of methane in black coal (or brown coal) mining? Methane liberation is known to occur in underground mines, but is it significant in the terms of its GHG effect?

A true comparison between gas and coal in terms of GHG effect should take this into account.
