Evraz falls after Russian earthquake

Russian steel-maker Evraz remains the biggest faller on the FTSE 100 this morning, following an earthquake in south-eastern Russia.

The mining and steel group, part-owned by Chelsea FC owner Roman Abramovich, is down 3.8% on the day. It separately announced a new financing deal this morning.

An earthquake has forced the suspension of coal mining operations in the Kuzbass region. Evraz operates Yuzhkuzbassugol in the Kuznetsk Basin, and also owns a stake in Raspadskaya, which operates mines in the region.

The shares are trading at just over 378p.
