While conducting the bi-weekly inspection and operation the hosit was unable to decend down the shaft due to a build up of ice in the shaft. The build up of ice covered approx. two-thirds the diameter of the shaft. The mine was immediately evacuated and recovery plans made to return the mine to normal operation.
