Remarkableriots Posted August 16, 2022 Share Posted August 16, 2022 Trapped Mexico miners: Setback as water levels rise WWW.BBC.COM Rescue attempts have been delayed again after the water level in the flooded shafts suddenly rose. Quote The miners became trapped on 3 August when a wall in a tunnel collapsed and water from an adjacent chamber gushed into the three shafts. Officials say the water has to drop to a depth of 1.5m (5ft) to allow rescuers to enter the shafts safely. But on Sunday, it suddenly rose again to more than 20m. Last week, a special underwater drone carrying a camera was lowered into one of the shafts. Relatives of the miners had hoped the drone would provide them with long-awaited news on their loved ones, from whom there has been no sign of life since the accident 12 days ago. Hopefully they're alive and can be rescued soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BloodyHell Posted August 16, 2022 Share Posted August 16, 2022 This is frightening. I can't imagine something the fear of something like that. Helpless in the dark. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CitizenVectron Posted August 16, 2022 Share Posted August 16, 2022 I'm sure Elon Musk has a solution, or at least a way to insult someone else's solution. I really hope they are able to get them out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Remarkableriots Posted September 21, 2022 Author Share Posted September 21, 2022 10 trapped Mexican miners presumed dead after a month as officials announce recovery mission WWW.USATODAY.COM Families grieved over the weekend as Mexican officials announced a months-long plan to recover 10 trapped workers' bodies from a collapsed coal mine. Sad it will take almost a year to recover the bodies so no chance of survival for those 10 trapped miners. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
