FOG BLOG CANADIAN NEWS LOG: TRAPPED SUDBURY MINERS ALL RESCUED AND BACK AT HOME!

All 39 Vale miners stuck underground in northern Ontario are now out and home!...Thirty-nine miners who had been trapped underground in northern Ontario have now all safely made it to the surface.

Vale, the company that owns the Totten Mine near Sudbury, Ont., says the rescue operation is now complete.

The workers became trapped in the mine on Sunday when a scoop bucket being sent underground detached and blocked the mine shaft.

They had to scale a series of ladders to climb out of the mine and were helped along by a rescue crew.

The rescue operation began on Monday night.

Vale said the workers stayed in underground "refuge stations" and had access to food, water and medicine before climbing out.
