The National Union of Mineworkers (NUM) is saddened that two mineworkers who were trapped underground at Kloof mine due to a fall of the ground have passed on. Kloof Mine is an operation owned by Sibanye Stillwater.

We are deeply worried about the safety of workers and we are continuing to witness these shocking fatalities. The cause of the incident is not yet known but DMR inspectors are investigating.

We sell our labour, not our lives, lungs, and limbs. One death is one death too many as we talk about breadwinners of the families.

The NUM sends its deepest condolences to the families of the deceased during this difficult time.
