The death toll rises to 58 and 305 are still missing in Brazil

In recent hours, the search for missing persons has been resumed Brazil after a dam break last Friday.

The rescues had stopped because of the risk of a second dam breaking in the area.

Firefighters found a group that brought the death toll to 58 and the number of missing to 305.

Neighbors in the area said that the site of the collapse of the dam was a restaurant, a parking lot and the offices of the mining company to which the structure belongs. There are probably more victims under the mud that covers them.

The causes of the accident are still unknown. L & # 39; Company Well, the largest producer and exporter of iron in the world, claims to have followed all safety procedures.

According to the authorities of the Minas Gerais, searches will continue as long as it is possible to find survivors.
