>>How long before the mine owner claims it was another earthquake?<<

I’ve been wondering the same thing. He keeps talking about the rescue is being compromised by more seismic activity. Yet, the seismologists are all reporting that there was never any earthquake.

Utah had three seismic events just today. It's had 17 in the last week.

Just where do you get your information?

...He keeps talking about the rescue is being compromised by more seismic activity....

They've been experiencing a lot of "bounces" during the rescue.

From the Department of Labor website:

...Wednesday, August 15, 8 p.m. EDT
The third borehole intersected the mine at 12:11 p.m. EDT. A microphone was placed into the hole but no sounds were detected. Workers are still injecting compressed air into the mine through the second borehole. Three bounces occurred at 1:15 p.m. EDT, 1:30 p.m. EDT and 1:40 p.m. EDT. No injuries resulted from the bounces. Provisions for a fourth borehole are currently underway. There are 45 people underground including, 3 from MSHA...

They've had to evacuate the rescuers on several occasions due to bounces.

I have personally looked at the mine maps with our engineer’s. These events are caused by Murray’s and the FED permit.
