Two Australian miners have been rescued from a gold mine after two weeks trapped underground and are safe and well, the mine manager said early Tuesday.
Matthew Gill, manager of the Beaconsfield Gold Mine, said Brant Webb, 37, and Todd Russell, 34 — who have been lodged in a steel cage beneath tons of fallen rocks for two weeks — were removed from the escape tunnel cut into the rock. He said both men were well.
That news is great. Me, living in Tasmania have heard all about it, its been on TV and everybody on the streets is talking about it.
