Hundreds of Miners in South Africa have left a Gold Mine after being trapped underground for three days due to a union dispute. Over 100 miners managed to escape earlier, while the remaining workers were prevented from leaving by some of their colleagues demanding recognition for their unregistered labor union. The Association of Mineworkers and Construction Union (AMCU) denied that anyone was held against their will, calling it a protest in support of the union. The mine officials estimate that around 110-120 miners were supporters of the unregistered union. There were no reports of violence as the miners left the mine.
