At least 16 people have died in a mine fire in Kazakhstan, prompting the government to order the nationalization of the company that operates the country's biggest steel mill.
Prelude to the Best Sommelier of Canada Contest | SaltWireALMATY -At least 16 people have died in a mine fire in Kazakhstan, ArcelorMittal Temirtau, the local unit of the Luxembourg-based steelmaker which operates the mine, said on Saturday.
Eighteen people have sought medical help, it said in a statement. Of the 252 people at the Kostenko mine, 205 had been evacuated and 31 had not been located by 10 a.m. , the company said.
