Brazil dam burst death toll rises to 99

-

 Authorities said, 57 bodies have been identified so far in the rubble of the ruptured tailings dam. The dam collapsed in Brumadinho municipality in the state of Minas Gerais last week, triggering heavy mud floods that caused multiple fatalities and injuries.

The number of people left homeless increased from 135 to 175, according to the state government.

Most of the victims are employees of mining giant Vale, which owned the dam. 

The dam held at least 13 million cubic meters of industrial waste that is estimated to have spread over an area of 125 hectares.
