owl:sameAs assertions in RDFa

hello all

I am trying to make an owl:sameAs assertion in some RDFa. I have the 
following code:

<span rel="rnews:about" 
resource="http://www.bbc.co.uk/things/4c0ccb99-7042-49e5-bb44-338b540441eb#id">
     <span rel="owl:sameAs" 
resource="http://dbpedia.org/resource/Buckinghamshire_County_Council"></span>
</span>

(I have declared the rnews and owl prefixes elsewhere in the doc)

When I test it only the first statement (rnews:about bbc:thing) is being 
picked up by linked data extraction tools, the owl:sameAs to the 
corresponding dbpedia URI is being ignored. Can anyone tell me what I'm 
doing wrong here please?

JT
