An unplanned roof fall was discovered at the Main North #6 Entry at 199 block in the intersection approaching the 9S #3 Seals. The fall is approximately 16'W x 80'L x 8-10'H. The fall was most likely caused by gradual deterioration of the mine roof. No problems with mining machines, PPE, training or compliance issues.
