Three die in south China smelter accident

THREE people were killed yesterday afternoon after being buried by calx powder in a smelter in south China's Guangdong Province, local authorities said Saturday.

The three people were cleaning a workshop of Renhua Danxia Smelting Plant in Shaoguan City when a huge container overturned and poured more than 10 tonnes of the ashy substance on them.

Their bodies were retrieved this morning, said a municipal official.

An investigation team was looking into the case, he added.
