As it was established, during the excavation of the rim, the miners fell through the coal one after the other

The accident in the Lubnica mine near Zaječar, in which two miners died and one was injured, occurred during the cleaning of stuck coal on the edges of the bunker, which involved three miners, according to the preliminary report of the inspection, RTS reported today.

As it was established, the miners fell through the coal one after the other during the excavation of the rim. The Republican Mining Inspection performed an extraordinary inspection at the Resavica Public Enterprise for Underground Coal Mining, the Lubnica Mine, the separation plant in Grljan, and the preliminary report stated that in the morning hours, the bunker of small coal finished products was cleaned of stuck coal on the edges of the bunker.

During the work in the bunker, the discharge of coal was dosed, and the procedure dictates that the workers gradually go down the bunker and dig out the edges of the bunker from the stuck coal. As it was established, during the excavation of the rim, the miners, one after another, suddenly fell through the coal in the bunker.

The other workers of the separation then started to drain the coal from the bunker and dismantle the exit door, in order to free the miners who were in the bunker as soon as possible. They managed to get them out of the bunker after 15 to 20 minutes.

Two employees were killed, while the third employee was pulled out of the bunker with minor injuries, according to the preliminary report.
