News24 reports that a rescue operation for an illegal miner, who was believed to be trapped at a disused shaft in the Highgate area, was called off on Friday morning.
Police were called to the scene where the miner was trapped early on Friday morning, but the conditions were too dangerous for the rescue team to go underground. As rain poured down, rescuers packed their bags and made their way to their cars, while the rest of the miners stood under a tree for shelter. The body of another illegal miner was found in the Riverlea area on Thursday.
