Trapped miners wait for rescue in Beaconsfield Australia
Two Australian gold miners Brant Webb and Todd Russell endured a twelfth night underground as rescuers labored to finish a 10 foot rock cut by hand. Officials cautioned the tunnel work remains delicate and lengthy while locals, once celebratory, faced wind and rain. Medical teams prepared for trauma and complications as the men, entombed since April 25 after a quake, are kept in a shared recovery area with minimal nourishment.
