It's been nine years since Pretty Nkambule, Yvonne Mnisi, and Solomon Nyirenda were trapped underground.

They were killed when a section of the mine collapsed, engulfing the container office they were working in.

Initial efforts to reach the container, some 70 metres below the surface, were halted due to safety concerns.
