Narrativa del investigador
At this time unknown dump point failure causing haul truck operated by the deceased to back and roll down the dump point.

Texto original en inglés de la MSHA

Investigación final de la MSHA
On November 5, 2024, at approximately 1:00 p.m., Troy Tarr, a 32-year-old haul truck operator with nine weeks and two days of experience, died when the ground at the dump point failed, causing the haul truck to roll over multiple times and come to rest at the base of the primary crusher stockpile. The accident occurred because the mine operator did not: 1) ensure the dump point could support the load of the haul truck, 2) conduct an adequate examination that would ensure the haul truck operator dumped material a safe distance back from the edge of the unstable dump point, and 3) ensure that the haul truck operator wore a seat belt.
Causas fundamentales
  1. The mine operator did not ensure the dump point could support the weight of the loaded haul truck.

    Acción correctiva: The existing dumping point has been eliminated. It has been replaced by a dumping location that does not require dumping from the top of the pile.

  2. The mine operator did not conduct an adequate examination that would ensure the haul truck operator dumped material a safe distance back from the edge of the unstable dump point.

    Acción correctiva: A new dumping location has been established which does not require dumping from the top of a pile. Therefore, the edge of a dumping point is eliminated.

  3. The mine operator did not ensure that the haul truck operator wore a seat belt.

    Acción correctiva: The mandatory use of seat belts has been added to the hazard training for all miners.
