Mineral and Petroleum Resources Minister Gwede Mantashe will return to the Ekapa Mine on Friday, where five miners are still trapped after a mud rush incident.
Over 1 000 miners have lost their jobs and have not been paid their February salaries.
Meanwhile, the mine says efforts to retrieve the bodies of the five miners are continuing following the incident which happened earlier this month.
