HUNTINGTON, Utah -- Rescue crews drilled into a deep chamber where six miners are trapped in a collapsed Utah coal mine but heard no sound through a microphone lowered into the cavity.

"The fact that we have not picked any sound, I believe, should not be interpreted as bad news," Crandall Canyon Mine co-owner Robert Murray told reporters late on Thursday. "There could be a number of factors as to why sounds in there might not be picked up."

The six men have not been heard of since Monday when the mine caved in.
