“For 16 years, this is the fifth major disaster at the mine to them. Zasyadko” – Kommersant

underground in Donetsk mine are 32 miners and their fate is unknown. This was reported at the regional state administration. Journalist of the newspaper “Donetsk ridge” Igor Sychev told details leading “Kommersant FM” Peter Kosenko.

In Kiev, these miners declared dead, but believe in Donetsk that while rescuers did not get to them, saying that these people were killed, it is impossible. The area where there was a state of emergency, under the control of militias. According to the State Administration of Donetsk, in the explosion of methane in the Zasyadko mine in Donetsk were 230 miners.

– At this point, what kind of information regarding the victims and injured miners?

– The crash occurred at great depth, approximately 1330 meters, making it difficult to access the rescuers to the site of the disaster itself, so exact figures of victims and victims while talking is not possible. It is known for one of the victims, and perhaps another victim is under the ground.

– This refers to the fact that rescuers can already now confirm at this point?

– Yes, it is at this moment. Raised from the surface of one man in the Republican Traumatology, four – in the burn center of the Institute of emergency reconstructive surgery, while others – in different hospitals, including the Hospital occupational diseases, various duty hospitals and regional hospitals.

– And how many were able to raise to the surface miners?

– It was 230, now 198, at 9 am was 157, the rise continues, but fortunately, there are people who can own up to the surface.

– Confirm that there can not be until around 30 small miners, I understand correctly ?

– There is obviously the whole mine filled up with coal. Here it is necessary to bear in mind that when the mine, any mine happens to be such a disaster, according to media passes information about the explosion of methane. Incidentally, such catastrophes are divided into two types: there is the release of methane, there is an explosion of methane, which is not the same thing. Emissions of methane – a sharp irreversible concentration in coal seams components of methane gas, which breaks formation, and there is a strong dynamic impact with great temperature and emission of gas, which, of course, leads to the death or personal injury. Explosion methane – is methane, which is concentrated directly in the air and blows at a certain moment. The exact specifications of these catastrophes give already competent professionals who until the place can not get close.

– As for the Zasyadko mine, it is administratively in the city, I understand correctly ?

– Yes, Kiev district, close to the combat zone. There straight to the airport 1 km away and the farm “Spartacus,” “Water,” where there are constant skirmishes, three kilometers.

– Who is active hostilities in This area is not conducted last days?

– Such as it was, is not, and skirmishes were at night on March 4.

– In any case, what happened at a depth of 1330 m, linked to the fact that the surface is, you can not?

– There is, of course, linked only in the sense that the mine work in a critical situation. In general, the mine with such depths require attention in the square or even in the cube – need degasification wells, need constant work for the control of methane for the other parameters of mining operations.

– Do I understand correctly that this mine is located in the territory controlled by the DNI?

– Yes, the DNI.

– Accordingly, the decision to work or suspension of mine taken by the management authorities of the DNI?

– The fact that this mine is not under the direct control of the , is a different story, this long story.

– Who determines how this particular mine?

– There are certain owners, and this story is also not yet fully clarify and not completely solved.

– A property owners in Kiev or Donetsk?

– The head of the mine Yefim Zviagilskiy, he is now the deputy today’s convocation of the Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine is in Donetsk, it also happens in Kiev. Obviously, many issues need to be addressed to him, because for 16 years since 1999. This is the fifth major disaster in the Zasyadko mine. And each time there were dozens, and in November 2007, even more than a hundred victims.

– the question is reformulated to make clear, the taxes paid by the mine management authorities of the DNI or Kiev?

– The Government of the Republic of Donetsk generally stated that all mines are taken, at least under external control, this decision meant the direction of taxes to the fund of the republic. Another thing is that the external control does not apply to purely technical and production issues, and this production – a production issue for coal chase and takes deeper and deeper into the earth, and it is very dangerous.

– As you know, in the Donbass, because there is mined anthracite, one of the oldest coal.

– Zasyadko mine – this, in general, the energy shaft, where it produces steam coal and coal already dug up these horizons, where, experts say , are not laws of Mining Geology and Geophysics of the Earth.
