Another Tragedy

An accident has been reported at Mopani Copper Mines in Mufulira, this morning. More than 100 miners are feared dead, Reuters reports only two deaths. The cause of the accident is said to have been that the bottom of the elevator the miners had boarded come out and plunged miners to their deaths. Was the elevator overloaded?

Just what type of 'investors' do we have nowadays. There have been more accidents, like chambeshi, in the mines and associated industries in a very short space of time than there were in all the years of ZCCM.
