A roof collapse at a coal mine in Chongqing in southwest China on Friday afternoon has left five workers missing, according to the local government.

Rescuers are trying hard to search their whereabouts at the Dongsheng Colliergy in Nanchuan District of Chongqing.

The privately owned coal mine is licensed and produces 150,000 tonnes of coal a year.
