State and federal mine safety officials are investigating an accident that injured eight workers at a Greenbrier County mine.
The state Office of Miners’ Safety, Health and Training tells media outlets that a mantrip lost its brakes on an incline at the Greenbrier Minerals Mountaineer Pocahontas No. 1 near Rupert. A mantrip is a vehicle that transports miners underground.
The accident occurred around midnight Tuesday.
Three workers were treated at an area hospital and released. Two workers remain hospitalized with non-life threatening injuries. Three others declined medical treatment.
Greenbrier Minerals vice president Garry Groves says the mine employs about 125 workers. The company also is investigating the accident.
