Gold Mine Dam Collapses Killing 15


A dam has collapsed at a gold mine in Siberia, Russia killing 15 people. Nine were hospitalized and six others are missing.


The dam was weakened by heavy rain.


When the dam collapsed a wall of water flooded two living wuarters where nine miners were located.


Investigators are now trying to determine if the mine had violated safety rules.
