In early July, another accident in the same mine resulted in a miner losing a leg. The owners will be sued by the miners (represented by a law prof in the University of Valparaiso) and by the Chilean state. The government of Chile, through its national copper corporation (CODELCO), spent about $20 million in the rescue. It looks like one lawsuit maybe criminal and at least one will be civil, for damages. A judge already froze all the company assets and the newspapers already discuss what might happen to the San José mine and the other three sites. Originally Posted by Irulan
