Polish miner found alive after more than 48 hours trapped underground
State-run news channel TVP Info reported that the miner was conscious when rescuers reached him.
“Canberra and Beijing signed 10 commercial deals worth more than A$10bn (US$8.8bn) on Monday as the two nations strengthened trade links during a state visit to Australia by Xi Jinping, the Chinese vice-president, who is expected to become the country’s next president.
The agreements, mainly in the resource and energy sectors, are small compared with a number of recent deals, including PetroChina’s decision last year to buy up to A$50bn worth of liquefied natural gas from Western Australia’s Gorgon project.”
