Around 40 people are missing after a landslide swept through the living quarters of a mining company on Wednesday morning in northwest China's Shaanxi Province.
The landslide, which occurred at around 12:30 a.m. on Wednesday, brought 1 million cubic meters of earth that buried five dorms and three houses at the Wuzhou mining company in Shanyang County.
Police, firefighters, mining rescuers and paramedics have rushed to the scene. Rescuers are using equipment to search for those missing. Residents living nearby have been evacuated.
