POWERED HAULAGE
Cactus Canyon Quarries Of Texas Inc · Caught in, under or between running or meshing objects
Injured was training a newly hired miner; twice that day he had cautioned never to climb live equipment. Injured then climbed side of conveyor, perhaps to "show off" the wrong way or to view crusher (not a miner task). Heavy coveralls caught under right arm shaft of conveyor pulley. Clothing squeezed, bruised and tore skin on arm. Upper arm broken with simple fracture.
