Each row is one emergency as ANM registers it. The mine's name is shown without the name of whoever works it, and the holder the register prints is never shown. The expediente is the one ANM prints. "Reported, not attended" marks emergencies ANM registered without its team attending.

The lessons-learned records and the press releases are ANM's own layers, smaller than the register; one emergency can appear in all three.
