Narrative

A run of ground occurred while advancing the face of the 3325 FWD 02 drift. The run of ground started in the upper left corner of the face and propagated back into the last row of installed ground support. The event occurred while the bolter had rigged out to allow for clean up and application of shotcrete. No personnel were affected and no travel or escape ways were impacted.
