Three women were killed while collecting mining material, were literally devoured by the earth, when a
crack opened at their feet, in the snowy Perpetual Santa Maria glacier area, on
the slopes of Cerro Condor Project (Lunar Gold mining center) in San Antonio de
Putina province in the Puno region. The zone was declared danger of imminent
rockslide zone, so contractors and other miners were notified and asked to
leave the area.

It happened midway through 8:15 am Sunday, when several women performing their daily work digging gold ore
were surprised by an unusual opening of the glacier floor, being instantly
buried by mine debris, the three females disappeared at once.

… as you can see the surface cracking is ten meters in diameter with a depth of eight meters.
