BOGOTA, Colombia—The bodies of all five miners trapped in a collapsed shaft in the world’s biggest underground copper mine for three days have been found and identified, an official said Sunday.
Aquiles Cubillos, the lead prosecutor in Chile’s O’Higgins region, said the body of Moises Pavez, the last miner to remain missing, was found at 3:30 p.m. local time by rescue teams. They had drilled through dozens of meters (feet) of rock to reach the stranded workers.
