Five foreign nationals, including a South African are among the 29 people who went missing after a mine explosion at the Pike River mine in New Zealand.

The explosion happened on Friday afternoon and there has since been no contact with the men.

A concern of possible poisonous gases in the mine has prevented the search team to carry on their operation for the missing miners.

So far, only two people have managed to escape the explosion.
