The Savarni Kuzbass coal company is bankrupt: the company has accumulated huge salary debts, and the general manager Stanislav Lupi is under criminal investigation.
There is no money in the factory, and the owners cannot find funds to resume full-fledged work. The creditors will decide the future fate of the mine this winter. The authorities stress that the regional budget cannot cover the debts of private businesses, so everything depends on finding investors and selling the remaining coal in warehouses.
The only good news is that the boiler house of the Berezovsky mine, which heats residential buildings and social facilities in the city, is operating as usual. There is enough coal in reserve, and the fuel supply will increase.
