The toll, as reported by the victims’ families, is provisional, the agency said in a statement late on Saturday.
The Energy and Mineral Resources Ministry said in a statement it would investigate the cause of the collapse and conduct an assessment to identify any potential further landslides.
Wafid said the undercutting method used in the open mining area and the steep slope may also have played a role in the collapse.
“While carrying out evacuation and search efforts, (rescuers) must pay attention to the weather and steep slopes, and not carry out activities during and after heavy rain, because this area still has the potential for further landslides that could hit or bury officers,“ Wafid said.
