Narrative

Rb-11 was installing rib mesh in XC-3 coming from the 1 Left 7 North Tailgate section in the set up room about 50' into the cross cut. The miner was attempting to hold the rib mesh in place during the bolting process when a slab of coal came off the rib landing on and pinning the miner to the ground.
