Polonia, terremoto in miniera carbone: decine di dispersi
PRODUCTION – 12 December 2023, Saxony, Bad Schlema: Foreman J’rg Neubert walks underground through a restored roadway on the Markus-Semmler level of the Wismut mine. 50 meters underground, the miners of the federally owned Wismut are restoring the legacy of uranium mining. Exposing and securing roadways is one of the main tasks of the 12 miners who work here together with foreman J’rg Neubert. The mine must be kept permanently open and drained. To this end, the entire underground mine is systematically ventilated. Otherwise, radioactive radon would escape uncontrollably in the region. The Steiger is often sung about at mining parades during these weeks, and since this year the Steigerlied has even been included in the intangible cultural heritage. Christmas traditions in Saxony are also closely interwoven with the centuries-old mining industry, which continues to this day.

Al momento del sisma 68 minatori si trovavano nell’area

 I soccorritori sono alla ricerca di decine di dispersi dopo che una scossa di terremoto ha fatto tremare la miniera di carbone di Rydultowy, in Polonia, a circa 1.200 metri di profondità. La portavoce del Polish Coal Mining Group, Aleksandra Wysocka-Siembiga, ha dichiarato che l’incidente è avvenuto intorno alle 8 di stamattina. A quell’ora 68 minatori si trovavano nell’area. Quindici sono stati portati in superficie, di cui 10 sono stati ricoverati in ospedale.
