Guest guest Posted January 2, 2006 Report Share Posted January 2, 2006 Monday, 2 January 2006, 17:24 GMT Blast traps US miners underground Thirteen coal miners have been trapped following an explosion in a mine shaft in the US state of West Virginia. The explosion happened about one mile (1.6km) underground at the Sago Mine shortly after 0800 (1300 GMT), local officials said. Rescuers who moved in to try to pull the miners to safety were forced to abandon their effort after finding no way to reach the group, reports said. Six other men were reported to have escaped from the mine unharmed. http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/americas/4575984.stm Dasha: Ve/Sa/Ve/Sa/Me satva Jorge Angelino Rua da Sociedade Filarmónica Perpétua Azeitonense, 29 2925-598 Azeitão Portugal jorge.angelino tel: mobile: 210813674 963916784 Add me to your address book...
