The first team of miners will re-enter to assess hazards and to establish infrastructure for supporting the roofs and sides of the drift.

A third team will provide mining services including gas monitoring, communications lines and ventilation bags. Once completed, the site is expected to be refurbished and handed back to the

Their cautious approach was supported by many international mine rescue experts.
