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:

WeirdoX4857 -- I can't believe this is really been around since 2003 but it does look classic and old asf still better than talking to kids on discord ranting about skibidi toilet and sexuality or whatever mental illness is going on in their heads

NudeRaider -- I bet it just needs another training session against pros instead of only against itself and nobody will be able to stop it anymore.

so it can be beaten by a prepared pro, even in macro games, if only barely. the muta micro in particular seems really hard to handle for protoss ground though. In the open goons can't catch them, in the base they trip over buildings, it just instantly flies out of storms and they fly circles around archons. Mass cannons do work, but can't cover the whole map with it. Probably need mass corsair to counter and hope you can outmaneuver all the scourge.
