A 10" water pipe chained to an excavator bucket whipped while workers were trying to clear a clog. The miner was walking back to the head of the pipe and was struck in the leg. The miner suffered a proximal tibular fracture where the tibia connects to the fibula.

Haulage road was not properly constructed and the seat on the pan was not properly set to the right amount of pressure resulting in the miner receiving a back strain from the strong bouncing of the equipment.

Miner was grinding on steel and a tiny piece of the metal bounced behind his safety glasses and hit his eye.

Employee was standing beside Pump face trying to pry the seal while the backhoe lifted with a chain. The lifting ring broke causing the chain and ring to hit the miner in the right wrist and forearm causing a 1 inch laceration approx 1/4" deep and blunt force trauma resulting in contusions and a slight abruption to the forearm.

Miner was using torch and pushed a bucket back with his leg. When he started the torch, his pants leg ignited from gasoline. A miner left an unmarked, unapproved container of gasoline in the area and the miner doing the cutting failed to do a work area inspection before he began his work.

Miner was futting a piece of pipe with a torch and the pipe broke loose burining his arm. Over the weekend the burn wound became infected resulting in fever and general malaise.
