英语文摘:9 survivors lifted out of flooded coal mine, sent to hospital

Over the past week, about 3,000 rescuers and 300 experts have been mobilized for rescue work. Fourteen pumps had been pumping out water of 140,000 cubic meters for the past six days, with an average speed of 2,500 cubic meters per hour. However, the concave ground would gather water, making an obstacle for the rescue workers. It is still not clear when the water would be drained up.

A survivor is rescued out of the flooded Wangjialing Coal Mine in Xiangning County, north China's Shanxi Province, April 5, 2010. Rescue for 153 trapped miners at flooded Wangjialing coal mine is continuing

The mine, affiliated to the state-owned Huajin Coking Coal Co. Ltd., is a major project approved by the provincial government. It is expected to produce 6 million tonnes of coal annually once in operation.
