Work crews trying to find 47 people missing after an open-pit mine collapse in northern China have had to change their excavation methods to avoid causing more landslides. Six people have been confirmed dead and six injured people have been rescued from the mine in Inner Mongolia’s Alxa League. Work crews are digging by layers and using staggered descents to carry on their search from both sides of the mountain. Rescuers were also seen using shovels, and rescue dogs in their search. The initial cave-in of a wall in the mine occurred Wednesday and at least one subsequent landslide has temporarily halted work.
