Supposedly the collapse is due to the rainfall that is falling in the area. The information published highlighted that so far the collapse caused motorcycles that were on top of some ravines to sink, as well as materials and miners who were sitting near the ravines.
The deceased are supposedly from the towns of Tumeremo, El Dorado, Ciudad Bolívar and Upata.
