Narrative

The overtravel limit switch went bad in the shaft for the Production Hoist. The hoist had to be stopped for one hour while the switch was replaced. The Production Shaft is the second escapeway out of the mine so the mine had to be evacuated. The switch was replaced within one hour and the personnel returned underground.
