Kazakhstan mourns 45 killed in ArcelorMittal mine disaster
Residents of Kazakhstan's mining town of Karaganda pay tribute to a miner who died following an accident on 28 October at an ArcelorMittal mine where 45 were killed.
It is the worst mining disaster in the Central Asian country's post-Soviet history.
The tragedy, which struck at the Kostenko coal mine comes after a series of deadly incidents at ArcelorMittal mines which have prompted the nationalisation of the company's local affiliate.
A 2006 accident killed 41 miners.
