An ultimate sigh of relief after three drillers trapped underground at a northern B.C. mine were pulled to the surface safely on Thursday night during a tense rescue mission.

The three miners had been trapped underground at the Red Chris Golden Copper Mine since Tuesday morning — over 60 hours — sheltering in a refuge chamber deep underground after two fall-of-ground incidents triggered a major emergency response.

"Goosebumps as you said… They’re [the miners are] in good spirits, it was just, you know, like winning a hockey game," a spokesperson of Newmont, the company which operates the mine, said.
