Moo Yee was a Chinese miner who worked in the No. 6 mine. On February 15th, 1901, explosions and a fire claimed the lives of Moo Yee and the other miners working that day. The mine was flooded in order to put out the flames. Unfortunately discrepancies in the recording of Chinese fatalities of the disaster have caused difficulties in identifying Chinese casualties, with names having been misspelled or mis-recorded.
