Narrative

Electricity from our power company had dropped out a couple of times throughout the morning. Each time all power was reset. At 10:30am the power dropped again, but the Koepe hoist took longer to reset/recover. Employees were evacuated from the mine via the production hoist. Koepe was operational at 12:30pm.
