At least 36 dead after landslide sweeps away jade miners in Myanmar

A landslide at a jade mine in northern Myanmar has left at least 36 people dead and over 30 missing.
The incident occurred in Hpakant, the epicenter of Myanmar's secretive jade mining industry.
Victims were independent miners who scour unstable earth and rubble for jade.
Over 100 rescuers are searching for survivors after the collapse swept miners into a nearby lake.
Hpakant's poorly regulated jade mines have a history of deadly accidents.
