Villagers really assisted in rescue efforts, community leaders such as Councillor Deetleef, the government and Jena Mines all put in a sterling performance. > We were communicating with the trapped miner for three days, but we realised as the days were progressing that his strength was now ebbing as he didn’t have food or drink. > We managed to rescue him on Monday and he was immediately transferred to Silobela District Hospital, where he is receiving treatment. Mupungu urged miners to be careful when conducting their activities as the ongoing rainfall activity has caused the ground to be unstable. | NewZimbabwe.com _If you found this article useful_ *Please support Pindula by forwarding to friends and groups*
