FALL OF ROOF OR BACK
Keokee Mining LLC · Struck by falling object
EE was riding outside on the mantrip, when a piece of little drawrock fell and hit his safety glasses and his safety glasses caused a skinned spot on the left side of his nose. It was cleaned and a band-aid put on the scrape. Did not go to the doctor.
