Narrative

Miner was accessing leach pad cut in a 631 G Scraper from the Haul Road. When the miner made the transition into the leach pad they struck a rough patch which caused the scraper cab to move up and down in a rapid motion. This caused the hairline fracture to thorax vertebrae T7 & T8. Seat Belts were worn, PPE was used.
