Texto original en inglés de la MSHA
On May 21, 2020, at approximately 12:30 p.m., John C. Corbin, a 60-year-old mine employee with 27 years of mining experience, was injured when an unsecured overhead steel pipe slid out of place and struck him. Corbin died due to complications from his injuries on May 23, 2020. The accident occurred because the mine operator did not ensure equipment was blocked against hazardous motion. The mine operator also did not provide adequate task training.
-
The mine operator did not ensure that repairs were performed after the equipment was blocked against hazardous motion. The mine operator also did not provide appropriate equipment or establish safe procedures for the task of moving heavy components on the platform.
Acción correctiva: The mine operator installed a new lifting and anchor system for handling heavy components at the head drive of the number 11 belt conveyor.
-
The mine operator did not adequately task train miners in safe work procedures for the task.
Acción correctiva: The mine operator revised the training plan and instructed the miners in the safety and health aspects and safe work procedures for the task. The mine operator will provide appropriate additional task training when the new system is installed.
