There were no victims in the mine disaster, so it became international news and broke the world record. The entire rescue plan cost about 10-20 million U.S. dollars, one third of which was donated by private companies, and the rest was paid by Chilean state-owned mining company Codelco and the Chilean government. The rescue operation used Phoenix escape capsule (Phoenix).
On October 13, at 0:12 local time, the first miner was successfully rescued. At 9:56 in the evening of the same day, the 33rd miner was rescued, all in safety.
All the miners who suffered this mine disaster were men. They are 32 from Chile and 1 from Bolivia. One of them is Franklin Robles, who is the national football player of Chile's former national football team. Participated in the 1984 Los Angeles Olympics.
