But it's been two weeks since the mine collapsed. Three people were killed during search efforts last week. And in the last 48 hours, government officials and the mine's owner have said the men may never be found because of the dangers in the mountain.Some family members of the missing miners aren't ready to give up hope.STEVE ALLRED, Brother of Trapped Miner: They've basically given up, and that's unacceptable. Absolutely unacceptable. I can't live with that, and his family can't live with that. One way or another, we've got to have closure.CESAR SANCHEZ, Brother of Trapped Miner: We were promised that they'd bring them out, and they need to stick up to that promise.
