Cave-ins, falling rocks, accidents with big machines, methane gas.
Explanation:
Open pit mines have big machines running around and occasionally someone will get killed. Rocks can also fall off the sides of open-pit mines. Underground mines can collapse killing miners, or the air supply can become restricted, or methane in coal mines can ignite and kill miners.
