I heard about this on my local radio station a few days ago... They said they had a pretty good chance of escaping when they had all the resources available.

Miners get trapped in Chile, it makes world news. Miners get trapped in Wales, no one hears about it until they announce the deaths. Poor Welsh miners. That just sucks. What happened?

Elara : Yeah, the area around the mine were used in the early 90's welsh coal industry boom, and over years the old mines got flooded with sediment and rainwater.
All that the miners really did was tap into one of the older mines and it flooded the tunnel they were in.

Oh wow! Are they going to do something to prevent this from happening again? Better mapping of the old mines, or pumping them and filling them in?

big fat cat well the problem with mining is that actually, regardless of whether its been mined before or not,almost all the time there are hollow areas underground that rain gets into, so even if you are mining in a new area youre still in danger of it.
then youve also got natural gas explosions, ventilation break downs leading to suffocation, the risk of breathing in coal which can destroy your lungs, and the traditional mine collapses.its a far from safe job, hence why many companies opt for open top mining instead now.
