29 Miners Could Be Dead!
On Friday November 19th, 29 - two escaped, miners got trapped in a mine bu an explosions caused by toxic gases. There has been no contact with the 29 miners for three days and it is possible that they could all have died from the poisonous gases. The youngest miner being only seventeen and highly inexperienced has a good chance of dying as his body can't fight the fumes as well as middle aged people, and also the oldest aged sixty-four has a good chance of dying too. But all the miners do have a fair chance of coming out alive. The person in charge of the Pike River Coalmine in Greymouth where the minors are trapped, is starting to drill a hole under ground to rescue the miners who are still trapped. They are planning to drill about 150 metres down of hard rock, but there is a danger of having another explosion, or that they could cause another explosion to happen. They just have to wait and see.
