Mollie Kathleen Mine will be allowed to reopen after accident

Twelve people were trapped in the mine after an elevator issue, one person died in the incident.

An investigation into last year’s accident that left 12 people trapped, 4 injured and 1 dead in the Mollie Kathleen Mine in Teller County ruled it was due to “operator error.”

The tourist mine has been closed since October after a cease and desist order by the state. It will be allowed to reopen later this year.
