Former Lily Mine workers say they will continue looking for the bodies of Solomon Nyarenda, Pretty Nkambule and Yvonne Mnisiworkers in Louieville, near Barbeton, Mpumalanga, have vowed to continue with their illegal efforts to search for their colleagues who died underground three years ago.

The bodies of Solomon Nyarenda, Pretty Nkambule and Yvonne Mnisi were never brought to the surface after the container they were working in disappeared in a sinkhole in February 2016.Since last week, the miners have been going underground illegally to try and retrieve the three victims.“Unfortunately today we are disappointed, we suspect sabotage because we couldn’t get to the target mission where we were going to work and our tools are no longer there.

“We are going back to the drawing board to plan how we are going to remove the rock; if it needs to be blasted we will consider that because we are not going to stop until we find our beloved colleagues,” Mazibuko explains.

It's at a wait and see situation

Too little too late. They could have saved them. Can't imagine the last to survive what went through his/her mind knowing this is your fate too.
