According to Reuters,Almost 90 miners were rescued and three other workers were missing after a cave in a gold mine in the northeast of South Africa today friday,mine owner Vantage Goldfields said.The collapse at the mine's main entrance trapped 87 workers underground,all of whom were rescued,the small gold producer said in a statement,but three others who had been working on the surface at the time could not be accounted for.No fatalities were reported.Work at the mine was suspended pending investigation on what caused the collapse,Vantage said.Mike Begg told reporters at the mine near the town of Barberton in Mpumalanga province,about 360 km {225 miles} east of Jahannesburg that ''The three missing are office workers,not miners.We are not going to rest until we find them''. Reporters were not allowed near the site where the cave-in occurred,and a crowd stood outside the perimeter fence awaiting word on the results of rescue attempts.Vantage Goldfields is an Australia based company mining gold at Barberton,a town that traces its origin to South Africa's 19th century gold rush.Vantage was delisted from the Australian bourse in January 2015.Manzini zungu,a pokesman for the Association of Mineworkers and Construction Union said ''At this point,it's unclear what caused the disaster''.More photos below.
