HARARE – The remains of a man have been retrieved from a disused mine shaft, five days after a tunnel collapsed.
Provincial Minister Monica Mavhunga said nine other people are believed to still be trapped underground.
Last Wednesday, six illegal miners were able to escape after the mine collapsed, caused by indiscriminate blasting.
Rescue efforts have been slowed by rain, which softened the earth at the opening of the shaft where rescue efforts are concentrated. (BBC)
