That’s awful. I understand why they are waiting, but it’s terrible if any of the original miners are still alive. My heart goes out to all the families.
I have seen this in the news. I wish the best for the families and victims. What state is at again??
Funny how something like this makes you relize how truly lucky you are!!
They actually gave up looking for them? Or are they just going to continue the search later because of the recent “bump”? A few of the searchers actually died when that happened. I think I heard a few weren’t found too.
😥 Those poor guys, and their families. It was reported that they were supposed to be reached only 3 days after the accident. It’s now day 10 or 11. It is truly heart breaking.
We have a lot of cave ins here in the mines in WV. But not because of earthquakes. Mostly because of wealthy folk down in Louisiana buying up old coal mines here and hiring people to work in them without making sure the mines are safe and up to code. They hire uneducated and ill experienced workers that wouldn’t know about the safty codes and send them down into a cave. But at least they try and find them when the mine caves in. Happened in Sago last year. So far whenever the mines have caved in they always search till the find them, even though they are usually gone by then. But there was one man in Sago that survived.
