Online Edition
Two people were found, one dead and the other injured, after a coal mine collapsed in northwest China's Shaanxi Province Wednesday, according to rescue headquarters Thursday morning.
The collapse occurred in a pit at Liujiamao Coal Mine in Shenmu County of Yulin City around 9 a.m. Wednesday. Among 49 miners working underground, 38 managed to escape while 11 were trapped, the county government said.
One body was found at 7:10 a.m, when the rescue team went as far as 1,400 meters from the pithead, another injured was carried out two hours later and rushed to hospital.
Nine people remain trapped in the coal mine, but rescue work has been hampered by the high density of poisonous gas underground.
The accident was caused by the collapse of the void left behind after coal is removed, according to a preliminary investigation report.
An investigation into the cause of the collapse is still under way.
