Survivors pulled out of Chinese mine five days after collapse

Rescuers using infrared cameras to peer into a wrecked mine in China have found eight surviving miners trapped for five days after a collapse so violent it registered as a seismic event.

The Christmas Day disaster at the gypsum mine in Shandong province killed at least one worker. Nine others remain missing.

Infrared cameras detected the surviving miners waving their hands and rescuers were drawing up plans to pull them to safety, said state broadcaster China Central Television.
