In 2010, Chile was globally recognized for the success of rescuing 33 captured miners. On August 5, 2010, San Jose copper and gold mines in the Atacama desert near Copiapó in the north of Chile collapsed and 33 men walked 700 meters (2,300 feet) underground. After 17 days, the Chilean government has organized rescue activities to find miners. In the past 24 hours on October 13, 2010 all 33 males were brought to the ground and live all over the world.
Also known as the "Chile mine accident" the 2010 Copiapó mining accident began on Thursday afternoon of 5th August 2010 as a serious collapse of the problematic 121-year-old San José copper-gold mine. Burial staff, known as "Los Angeles 33" ("33"), was trapped from the entrance to the mine through a spiral underground service ramp to 700 meters (2,300 feet) underground. Mixed crews with experienced miners and technical support staff experienced little underground work and survived underground for 69 days before rescue. (Via Wikipedia)
On August 5, 2010, the cave collapsed at the San Jose mine in northern Chile and 33 miners landed under the ground of over 2,000 feet (Weik, n.d.). This should be another 12 - hour normal shift on another day, which turned into a nightmare of 69th. Minors do not know if this will be the last time they will see the light in the last 2 months. Mine workers like firefighters and police know that their work is in danger. Their families also know that they are in danger and acknowledge that they may receive bad news calls some day. Knowing this and seeing it happens is two different things. Communication with family members and employees Families with different backgrounds and nationality should be considered when communicating with them. Minera San Esteban Primera hopes that some people will participate in the communication program, including ongoing communication with family and employees
