Miner working in shaft bottom was struck on hard hat by a piece of rock that became dislodged from the shaft rib by the forces acting upon a properly installed galloway stabilizer jack. The miner received a scalp laceration that required sutures. CT scan revealed a slight fracture in the basilar bone and a minor compression fracture to the T-8 vertebra.
