Must Read

Two more dead bodies have been recovered from Burkina Faso’s Perkoa zinc mine, as investigation continues.

Two miners are still missing while the total numbers of victims recovered is now six.

Unexpected torrential rains flooded the mine six weeks ago trapping eight miners working at a depth of more than 500 metres.

Despite diminishing hopes rescue efforts continue and experts have been flown in from Canada, Australia and South Africa to help with operations.

The group consisted of one Tanzanian, one Zambian and six Burkinabès.

The authorities are yet to reveal the identities of the bodies that were recovered from the Perkoa zinc mine.
