Day of calm at South African mine

9:26 AM Monday Aug 20, 2012

Sunday brings a day of calm to Lonmin's Marikana Mine, which saw 44 people killed in South Africa's bloodiest protest since apartheid. Despite being told they must return to work on Monday or risk losing their jobs the miners remain defiant.
