Klondex Gold & Silver Mining Company · Struck by falling object
The employee was loading a face round. Some clay type of material fell from the back, knocked his hard hat off and struck his head. The loose material fell because there was a space between the back and mesh. Because it was clay, it broke into small pieces that fit through the mesh.
