Who owns mineral chunks?

I need to have a trigger to remove whatever unit is created when a worker mines at a mineral field. I have created 2 triggers with conditions of "bring Mineral Chunk Type A/B" which should remove the mineral chunk and order the worker to stop moving. These triggers aren't firing though, I've tried all players, neutral players, player 7 (who owns the mineral fields), neutral to no avail.

I need this to prevent exploiting where workers can walk through ground units while carrying cargo.
Thanks in advance for the help :)

ᴄʜᴇᴇsᴇ ɪᴛ!

the image a worker receives when mining a mineral field is not a unit, but an image. The only way to remove it is to remove the worker and make a new one, or let the worker return the minerals back to the town hall. There is no way to stop workers from walking through units while carrying cargo.

Oh, lame :(
Thanks for the speedy reply, I guess I will have to come up with a different, less direct, workaround. :ermm:
