"Another video of an underground tavern by illegal miners/zama zamas has surfaced on social media."

In the follow-up 34-second clip, the jovial group can be seen wearing typical miners' clothing, complete with helmets and boots.

Others are seen sitting back and watching a few others on their feet dancing to the music blaring throughout the hollow crevice.

Adding to the atmosphere, the men, comprising at least a dozen alleged zama zamas, whose activities are rife in SA, exchange dumpy and quart bottles.

More of them have red plastic cups in hand, merrily enjoying the underground atmosphere. At least two exchange impromptu handshakes with the rest of the group as the clip rolls to an end.

It is unknown where the video was taken or the language spoken by the alleged zama zamas. The clip garnered over 100,000 views 16 hours after its publishing.
