Now that is seriously good news. Hopefully the miners will be able to make it out soon now.
Sixty-five days after the mine's collapse, officials on Saturday announced that the drill reached the miners as sirens blasted through the mine site to signal the achievement.
But the moment of pure happiness was shadowed by the fact that it may take hours -- possibly days -- of hard work and tough decisions before any of the miners can be pulled to safety.
"We have not yet rescued anyone and there is much ground to cover," cautioned Chilean Mining Minister Laurence Golborne, who also told reporters that the families of the miners "are aware of the process still expected."
