Background
The Yerunakovskaya coal mine (Ерунаковская-8 шахта), also called Yerunakovskaya-8, is an underground coal mine in Kemerovo Oblast, Russia. The mine is owned and operated by Raspadskaya PJSC, a subsidiary of Evraz. Evraz announced in December 2021 that it is planning to spin off Raspadskaya Coal Company, but these plans were cancelled in March 2022 due to the sanctions against Russia.[7]
In April 2022, water burst into the mine, resulting in one fatality and one injury.[8]
In October 2022, a fire started in the mine, more than 200 miners were evacuated.[9]
In February 2023, operations were partially suspended following the inspection by Rostechnadzor which revealed that the mine's longwall face has exceeded the permissible concentration of explosive methane four times.[10]
