  All the miners were alive, and no one was hurt, regional emergency authorities said, adding the rescue operation was over.
  Preliminary reports said nine people were trapped in the Zarechnaya mine in Kemerovo region following a roof collapse1 accident that took place at 16:25 Moscow time (1225 GMT) Sunday.

  In March 2007, 110 miners died in the Ulyanovskaya mine in the same region, the deadliest coal mine blast over the past 75 years.
  In March 2013, four workers were killed in a floor at a coal mine in the Kemerovo Region.
