Injuries to the survivors ranged from cuts and scrapes to head and chest trauma. Six of the injured were taken to Castleview Hospital in Price. One rescuer died there, one was airlifted to a Provo hospital, and three were treated overnight and released Friday morning. A sixth was still being treated, in serious condition with back injuries.
The second dead worker passed away at Utah Valley Regional Medical Center in Provo. Another worker there was in serious condition with head trauma but was alert, she said. The third death was confirmed by Kulczewski, the Labor Department spokesman. After the third bore hole was drilled and there were sounds inside the mine, but the rescuers were not sure if it was the sound of falling rock or an animal, three more rescuers went in and all three died from another cave in. One of the dead rescuers had two brothers in the initial mine cave in and quoted to his wife, 'They would have wanted to rescue me.' Those were his last words to his wife. The Wilberg Mine cave in is blamed on small tremors (or earthquakes) but many of the miners are not buying this excuse from the mine owners. There are 22 previous counts on mine safety against the company and safety regulations were not promptly corrected. Not long ago there was another cave in at a different mine and it was 20 days before the miners were rescued, but they were alive! We should all pray for these men in hopes they are just as lucky.
