The Gold One Mine is reportedly stopping any miner represented by the Association of Mineworkers and Construction Union (Amcu) from entering the mine following a three-day-long underground strike last week.
The East Modder mine operation has also sent suspension letters to 20 miners suspected of being the ringleaders of the major strike.
"The situation at the entrance is caused by people who came even when they have not received an SMS to return."that some of the miners whose tags allowed them entry into the mine were asked by the security guards stationed at the gate whether they were Amcu members or National Union of Mineworkers members before they were allowed to go any further.
"There are 20 Amcu miners on that list. This is to intimidate us from fighting for the rights of the employees," he said.Last Monday a group of over 543 miners refused to resurface, demanding that the mine acknowledge Amcu as a union with majority members to represent the miners.
