Born Hunter 17,763 Posted September 16, 2011 Report Share Posted September 16, 2011 Are these mining accidents becoming more common? Over the past couple of years there have been a few high profile ones. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Malt 379 Posted September 16, 2011 Report Share Posted September 16, 2011 Are these mining accidents becoming more common? Over the past couple of years there have been a few high profile ones. Don't think so mate, mining's always been a dangerous game and there was a lot more people employed in mining years ago. Maybe it seems that way because they didn't used to get all the coverage they get today? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
