Narrative

A 2-yard LHD bucket was slung under the Chippy Hoist skip being hoisted up the Jewell Shaft. A guide shoe came loose causing the bucket to rotate into and tearing out 2 shaft guides causing the bucket to lodge into the timber. 4 shaft crew members riding inside the skip were uninjured but briefly stranded before being transfered to the adjacent Double Drum Hoist skip.
