MOSCOW (Reuters) – Water has almost completely flooded the Pioneer gold mine in Russia’s Amur region, where 13 miners are stuck, Russia’s state-run RIA Novosti news agency said on Thursday, citing emergency services.
The miners became trapped on March 18 after a rock fall.
The Pioneer mine is one of the largest gold mines in Russia.
