Global miner Newmont said three Hy-Tech Drilling workers were safely brought to the surface following two fall of ground incidents that occurred in the access way to the underground work area of a Red Chris mine project in British Columbia, Canada, on July 22.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n

\u201cWe are relieved to share that all three individuals are safe, and in good health and spirits. They had consistent access to food, water, and ventilation whilst they remained in place in a refuge chamber underground over the last two days. They are now being supported by medical and wellness teams,\u201d said Newmont. <\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

At the time of the initial incident, the three workers were over 500 meters from the affected zone. They were instructed to relocate to a refuge station before a subsequent fall of ground blocked the access way. To ensure focus on the response efforts, a standdown of operations at Red Chris was implemented. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Newmont said it will conduct a comprehensive investigation into the incident and will share the lessons learned transparently across the industry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
