Echo Bay Exploration Inc. · Struck by falling object

The employee was working in an escape raise preparing it for the installation of a liner. He dropped his drill steel and climbed to the bottom of the raise to get it. At that time a piece of rock fell out of the raise from an unknown location and hit him on his hardhat causing his hardhat to cut his head. He received 8 sutures and returned to work that shift, full duty.
