<p>Some 1,000 emergency workers and 30 vehicles were sent to the site in the hilly city of Xining on the Tibetan Plateau.</p>
<p>Footage apparently shot by security cameras showed the truck settling into the hole while people nearby scrambled for safety.</p>
<p>In other footage, workers using diggers, dump trucks and other equipment excavated earth around the collapse site.</p>

<p>Light and smoke could be seen at the surface, possibly as a result of the rupture of gas or electricity lines.</p>
<p>The collapse left 16 people in the hospital.</p>
<p>The local emergency management bureau said the bus had been raised from the collapsed 860 square foot section into which it had fallen.</p>
<p>The hilly city of Xining is the capital of Qinghai province, one of China’s poorest regions, sitting atop the Tibetan Plateau.</p>
<p>Mining is believed to have caused instability in the ground in many areas after years of barely restricted mineral extraction.</p>
