BLACK HAWK, S.D. (AP) — Experts from Montana Technological University will soon begin to analyze what lies underground in a Black Hawk neighborhood where homes have been evacuated because the ground over an abandoned mine collapsed.
A law firm representing some of the residents of Hideaway Hills recently announced another possible mine has been discovered besides a surface mine and the collapsed mine.
So next month, Montana Tech experts will search for answers.
At least 30 people who lost their homes when the ground collapsed and exposed the abandoned mine have now signed on to a lawsuit seeking compensation from the state who they say failed to reclaim or warn buyers about the mine.
