ABSTRACT:
A frangible container is pivotally connected to the sweep wire of mine sweeping equipment so as to intercept the mine mooring wire passing therealong and be pivoted thereby so as to connect thereto during the pivot motion and to be severed as the mooring wire continues to pass along the sweep wire, thereby providing a force to sever the frangible container to allow release of its tethered marker for floating to the surface with the buoyant mine when the mooring wire is severed, following the marker releasing operation.
