Chile mine collapse traps 34 miners
Rescue workers in Chile are trying to reach 34 miners who have been trapped underground at a copper mine in the country's north since Thursday night.
'Blood pact' suggests what went on undergound will stay there
The government has hailed the men as models of solidarity, but in a separate interview, Richard Villaroel, another member of “los 33”, said the truth was not so simple. There was the waiting for death, the hopelessness, the petty squabbles and the nagging, unspoken fear of cannibalism.

I have been looking trying to find out when the 34 became 33 no luck yet.
On 22 August knocking was heard on a drill head as it reached the depths of the mine. Rescuers celebrated as they withdrew the drill to find a note attached reading, "The 33 of us in the shelter are well." Once the first bore hole established a lifeline to the men, letters began to pass between loved-ones via the 'doves.' Later a fiber optic line enabling phone calls and videoconferencing was installed in the mine.
