Narrative

The mine monitoring system on the surface identified elevated CO at sensor #108, located at the LW TG. Upon investigation, flames were discovered where expansion foam had been applied in a roof cavity near #50 shield at the LW face. A miner immediately applied a fire extinguisher and quickly suppressed the flames. The area was then cooled with water and firefighting foam.
