All the nine people missing in mudslides caused by heavy rains in southwest China's Sichuan Province were dead as the last two bodies were recovered over the weekend, the provincial government said late Sunday.

Rocks and mud buried a residential quarter of Sinohydro Bureau 10, a hydropower engineering and construction company in Jinyang County, early Friday, leaving nine workers missing.

Local authorities have intensified monitoring and early warning about possible landslides as more heavy rains likely continue to lash the region.

Rainstorms in the country this year have left 307 people dead and 113 missing as of Thursday, according to the State Flood Control and Drought Relief Headquarters.
