An unknown group of illegal miners went underground in a Laanglagte mine shaft in Vereeniging.

It is believed that the two groups went into the mine on Wednesday and Thursday, however they did not come out afterwards.

A rescue team alongside the South African Police Service are assisting in rescuing the group.


It is still not clear as to why they went underground.
