Miners running out of food underground
SPRINGS - Over 400 miners staging an underground sit-in at the Gold One Mine in Springs are running out food.
The protest is against the dismissal of over 50 workers and recognition of union, AMCU.
But, it's still unclear if all are participating willingly or if some are being held hostage.
This is the second sit-in being staged at the mine.
In October, hundreds of workers were allegedly held hostage.
It's unclear when or if the mineworkers will resurface.
