Two bodies have been found as rescuers continue their search for miners buried in a landslide in Tibet, state media reported.
83 miners were buried Friday when a landslide struck an area of about 3 km in Maizhokunggar County, state-run news agency Xinhua said.
Official state television CCTV broadcast footage of over 3,000 rescue workers, many of whom are local army reserves, at the site digging with heavy equipment.
Although harsh weather conditions are making search efforts difficult.
