A Polish coal miner trapped underground since Thursday was found alive by rescuers on Saturday, local media reported.
The Rydultowy mine in southern Poland, operated by state-controlled group PGG, was hit by a tremor at around 06:00 GMT on Thursday about 1,200 metres (3,960 feet) below ground.
One miner died as a result of the tremor and some 76 were brought to the surface alive by rescuers on Thursday, with 17 taken to hospital.
State-run news channel TVP Info reported that the miner was conscious when rescuers reached him. Private broadcaster RMF FM said a helicopter was at the mine to transport him to hospital.
Most of the miners who went to hospital have now been discharged, TVP Info reported.
