One miner has died and 11 have not been in contact with rescue teams, according to a Xinhua report from last week.
The rescued miner was found in a different section of the mine from a group of 10 men who have been receiving supplies of food.
Officials said on Thursday it could take another two weeks to clear “severe blockages” before they could drill shafts to reach the 10 men.
