A miner who was believed to have died in a gallery explosion has miraculously escaped a week after the serious event.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
Leonid Moiseev, 49, was among 190 miners trapped underground when strong tremors toppled the giant rock of the Raspadskaya coal mine in Russia’s remote Kemerovo region.<\/p>\n
Only two of all the miners remained unevacuated, as local reports said Moiseev, a married stepfather to the woman’s two children, had died.<\/p>\n
But a few days later the search groups received a signal from their sensors.<\/p>\n
After digging about 50 meters into the collapsed rock, they found the miner alive, stuck in a cavity that had ventilation passages through which he could breathe.<\/p>\n
The second missing miner was found dead.<\/p>\n
Leonid was smart and could talk to the doctors, explaining that he had fractures in his ankle and pelvis.<\/p>\n
Local mayor Vladimir Chernov posted the good news: “Alive, rescue teams dug to the spot where the driver of the drilling rig had disappeared during the collapse.”<\/p>\n
“The miner was injured but alive. He quickly rose to the surface and was handed over to the doctors.”<\/p>\n
“Since the massive collapse of July 5, he had been waiting for help and did not give up. He is a true hero.”<\/p>\n
Searches in the mine continue. The plant is partly owned by the former owner of the English club Chelsea, Roman Abramovich, through his company Evraz.<\/p>\n
