Local economic context
ⓘCounty figures come from the US Census Bureau's American Community Survey, 5-year pooled estimates, so the 2023 vintage covers 2019 through 2023. The Census category is 'mining, quarrying, and oil and gas extraction', which is broader than MSHA jurisdiction and includes oil and gas workers no mine employs. These figures describe the surrounding county, not this mine, and are not a factor in any specific incident.

Two oversized rocks were lodged in the jaws of the portable crusher. I managed a chain around one rock and had someone else pull it out. He then put his right toes in a pinch point for a step to reach the remote control. On grabbing the remote control, he absentmindedly switched the jaws on and caught his foot. His 4th and 5th toes on his right foot were fractured.
