Narrative

A mine crew was welding sections of Drisco pipe together for use by Mine Tailings. In the process of aligning two sections of pipe in the welding machine assembly, the employee's hand was pinched between the sections of pipe. This resulted in a non-displaced fracture to the first knuckle joint of the right index finger.
