YUZHOU, Henan - The death toll from a gas leak at a coal mine in Central China's Henan province rose to 32 on Monday after six more bodies were found.

Five others remain trapped underground, a spokesman with the rescue headquarters said.

Rescuers said the chances of survival were very slim for the trapped miners, who could be buried in coal dust.
