Narrative

The injured employee was installing a spray block cover on the # 10 continuous miner. While holding the cover to put the bolts in, the cover slipped out the employees hand. The cover smashed his left ring finger. It was determined he had a tuft fracture at the tip of the finger and required three stitches.
