Disaster yarn set in South African gold mines starring Roger Moore. A cartel of wealthy international businessmen plot to destroy the largest mine in the country and reap the benefits of rising stock prices. Moore, unaware of their plan, is the new manager of the mine after a cave-in kills the previous one. He begins an extramarital affair with the wife of one of the highest ranking men in the company. Too much time is spent on their romantic holiday and Moore's playboy lifestyle. The Big Action Finale arrives in which Moore risks his life to save the mine and the trapped miners. Predictable in every way, but still manages to entertain.
