Rescuers yesterday recovered five more bodies buried under the iron-ore sludge in Shanxi province, taking the death toll to 259.
However, the exact number of people missing in the tragedy is still not known as a wall of the liquid iron-ore waste dump broke, causing a massive mudslide eight days ago.
The sludge buried Yunhe village and a market spread over 30 acres in Xiangfen county.
