A un año de la tragedia minera en México

Aniversario tragedia

The family of a dead miner arrive to a mass in honor of the 65 miners killed during last year´s mine explosion in Pasta de Conchos´ coal mine in San Juan de Sabinas, Mexico, Monday, Feb. 19, 2007. An underground explosion on Feb. 19, 2006, ripped through the Pasta de Conchos mine, killing 65 miners, injuring 13 others and virtually destroying the 1.4-mile-long mine. Since then, hundreds of miners working around the clock have made painstakingly slow progress to reach the remains of 63 of their colleagues still trapped in the mine. (AP Photo/Eduardo Verdugo)
