MINE SAFETY
Rescue workers have spoken to a group of more than 15 miners still trapped after a landslide at a gold mine in northern Nicaragua, the company that used to operate the mine said on Friday, although several are still unaccounted for.
Julio Quintero, head of Nicaraguan miner Hemco, a unit of Colombia's Mineros, said the mine in the Bonanza project some 420 km northeast of Managua, was shut roughly four years ago after being deemed unsafe.
