The injured miner & the supervisor were attempting to light the #2 kiln's gas flame. While the miner was holding a flare attached to a metal pole at the end of the gas pipe, the supervisor turned on the gas. In the process of lighting, the gas ignited & blew back through the front of the kiln causing burns to the right side of the miner's body. On 5/28/18 the EE passed away.

Drill operator was fatally injured by the drill rig he was operating. The likely scenario is that the drill rig began to roll forward while he was at the back of the rig operating the controls for the drill. The victim may have attempted to stop the drill rig and was caught up under the rig and suffered fatal injuries. There were no witnesses to the accident.
