An elevator accident occurred on 27 November 2023 at the Impala Platinum mine in Rustenburg, South Africa, when an ascending mine elevator fell 200 m down the number 11 shaft.[1] Eleven miners were killed on the scene and 75 injured, with a 12th and 13th miners dying later in hospital.[2] The elevator was stopped from falling further by automatic safety mechanisms, but the mechanisms failed when the counterweight became trapped, resulting in a sudden stop which led to the fatalities.[3][4]
