Narrative

The Couer hoist went down due to an electrical problem while hoisting ore from 3400. The electricians had a little trouble identifying the problem but finally determined it to be a burned coil and fuse on the secondary board of the hoist controls. The only crews affected were the diamond driller and cages who instructed to stand down. Hoist was back up at 3:30 pm
