Hundreds of rescue workers are looking for survivors after a landslide hit 33 buildings in the southern Chinese city of Shenzhen.
Seven people were pulled from the rubble with minor injuries but at least 91 people are still missing, according to Shenzhen authorities.
About 900 people were evacuated from the industrial park as the landslide struck on Sunday.
The city is one of China's biggest and is a major industrial centre.
It is situated in the southern province of Guangdong, across the mainland border from Hong Kong.
The landslide has blanketed a vast area of 380,000 sq m (455,000 sq yards) covering it with up to 10m (32ft) of mud, Shenzhen's emergency management office said on its official micro blog.
Reports said the landslide also caused an explosion at a nearby petrol station.
