HANGZHOU -- Three workers were killed in an ore mine cave-in on Wednesday in east China's Zhejiang Province, according to the local government.

The accident took place at about 8 a.m. when five miners were reinforcing loose rocks in a calcite mining pit in the small mine in Liaoan Village, Fuyang City.

A large volume of rocks and dirt suddenly fell from the pit roof, killing three on the spot. The other two workers escaped.

The local government was investigating the accident and working on compensation for the families of the victims.

The village-run mine was fully licensed.
