The Pioneer gold mining company expressed condolences to the relatives of the miners and pledged to provide each family member with a one-time compensation equal to a miner’s yearly wage. Starting April 1, the families will receive monthly payouts for underage children. Authorities will also issue compensation.
Four of the missing miners were from the town of Sibay in Bashkortostan. The men’s relatives said that the republic’s authorities did not cover the tragedy and did not reach out to the men’s families or provide them with any assistance. The wife of the miner Vadim Nikolayev started a petition, criticizing the authorities and the rescuers. Over 2,000 individuals endorsed her appeal to Vladimir Putin, urging the president to take the rescue mission under his personal control.
