I guess that’s the nature of the business? Must suck though!

I’d like to know the damage?

Too bad the despots who planted them aren't there for the decommissioning. The Ottawa Treaty and all the previous conventions should have had them and their cohorts dig them up by hand. Nasty bidness!

I disagree,the ones who ordered the mines and the ones who ordered it to be done should of dug them up. bingo, bubba, wang,helmut,thong,scumetchie and charlie were just fallowing the orders.

Linked article seems to tell that's actually happening, Chile is removing it's own mines. Sure, not the already dead leaders themselves.
