The chairman of the subx0> Three Workers Union”, Ibrahim Jonuzi, has declared that miners have managed to exit after the power cuts.
I confirm that the miners are stuck, but are out. There was a defect with the current, more details I didn't. A couple of hours or six or seven left, normal work is already under way, returned to normal”, he said in an answer to EO.
During the day it was reported that dozens of miners had failed to leave the mine after the second shift was completed because of a problem in electricity supply. According to reports, they were trapped in horizons 10, 9 and 8, hundreds of meters underground.
According to these reports, miners had to leave the mine hours earlier, but power failure had made normal operation possible for elevators and safety exits.
This is not the first time reported on such a situation, since just a few days ago, because of an electrically similar defect, some miners were also trapped hundreds of meters underground.
