Beijing: Rescue workers on Sunday successfully lifted out one of 22 miners trapped for two weeks hundreds of metres underground in an east China mine, reported state broadcaster CCTV.
The man, discovered Sunday in a separate section of the mine to 10 workers who had already established contact with rescuers, was in "weak physical condition", CCTV said.
The blast at the Hushan mine in Shandong province sealed the workers underground on January 10.
