Default Re: 3000 miners trapped underground

Looks like there is big hope.

BBC news
"the bottom of the shaft where the miners are trapped is well ventilated.
She said rescuers were in contact with the miners, and planned to begin lifting them very soon.
However, only 75 miners could be lifted out at a time through the adjacent ventilation shaft, she added. "

Does not sound as though lives are in danger, but strewth who would work underground. You could not pay me enough to work in a mine.
