The designated person called for the cage to pick the people up from the work deck. The designated person failed to notify the hoist person the exact location of the work deck while it was on approach. Therefore causing an employee to be in line of the landing area, the bottom of the cage brushed EE and pushed IE away from landing area.

A miner was working in the #1 production shaft. While being tied off to a divider, the employee stepped back onto the workdeck and radioed the hoist operator to go up. The employee forgot to transfer the lanyard from the divider to the work deck and was subsequently pulled off the work deck by the lanyard and landed on the divider fracturing a leg.

While 2 EEs were riding work deck below chippy, a hose blew on hoist & it began to unreel. Hoist operator hit E-Stop. 1 EE on chippy work deck lost his balance & struck a divider injuring back. He was taken to a hospital to be checked out, given shot for pain, & released to full work duty. Hose blew @ 5PM, @ 5:22 evac called, @ 5:25 MSHA called, @ 6:00 all EEs out of mine.

The employee boarded the skip to ride down with the first shift. His hand was positioned on top of the closing handle as he was sliding the gate closed. When the gate slid to the closed position his right middle and ring finger were in the line of fire of the magnet sensor for the skip. A crushing injury resulted in a single fracture to both finger tips.
