Two Mines, Two Rescues (SiC6)
Comparing and contrasting is finding out what is the same and what is different about events, objects, animals, or people. Over the years, mining companies have developed many ways to rescue trapped miners. However, in spite of their procedures, accidents still do happen. This book compares and contrasts the Bonnie Vale collapse in 1907 and the Beaconsfield collapse in 2006, including how they got trapped, how they survived and how they were rescued.
