GREYMOUTH, New Zealand — The fourth explosion in nine days ripped through a coal mine where the volatile conditions have prevented the recovery of 29 miners’ bodies.
The workers were trapped by the first blast Nov. 19 and declared dead after a massive blast five days later.
There were no injuries from today’s blast. People working near the mine entrance were moved away for their safety. The new blast possibly was sparked by methane gas leaking from coal seams and a smoldering fire underground.
