RE:Rescue English translation (Google Translate) of previous post Rescue operations for miners stranded in the Perkoa basements continue under the supervision of Ministers Jean Alphonse SOME in charge of Mines and Quarries and Bassolma BAZIE of Civil Service, Labor and Social Protection. On Saturday, May 7, 2022, they led Ro in the Sangui the daily meeting of the provincial crisis management committee. They then moved to the mine site to see firsthand the progress of the flood water pumping works. "There are significant advances in the search for miners trapped in the basement of the zinc mine," said the General Manager of the Perkoa mine, Hein FREY, before the government delegation. The room of refuge where the eight (8) miners could be found is at a depth of 580 meters, noted Mr. FREY. The water drain is at a level of 550 meters on May 7, 2022, said the technicians assigned to the water pumping task. Water drainage has moved up a gear thanks to the installation of two additional, more efficient pumps. These aircraft from Ghana were eagerly awaited. “No effort is too much” underlines the Minister of Mines and Quarries Jean Alphonse SOME. He also announced the arrival in the coming hours of other pumping devices from South Africa. In addition to these actions, the European Union and Morocco are offering to support Burkina Faso in this rescue operation for the eight miners from Perkoa. The Burkinabe government has already sent its partners the list of needs, particularly in terms of technical equipment and human resources. Anything that could probably speed up the search for workers trapped in the mine. Also, it should be noted, the visits of Ministers Issaka SOURWERMA of Religious and Customary Affairs, Jean Alphonse SOME of Mines and Quarries and Bassolma BAZIE of Public Service, Labor and Social Protection to the customary chiefs of Perkoa, Sandi and Ro. This approach follows the full involvement of these traditional dignitaries in the preservation of peace and social cohesion. The parents of the victims, through their representative Antoine BAMA, hope that all means will be met to save the minors.
