Narrative

The skip is equipped with a roll-up door to allow forklifts to load supplies inside the skip. The rollers jumped the track when the door was lowered after supplies were loaded onto the skip. The condition was not detected when the skip was released into the mine. The leading edge of the door caught on shaft structure and was ripped off. The door was damaged beyond repair.
