Narrative

Injured was roof bolting on the 36 1/2 block main west roof fall with an air drill when some head coal around an adjacent roof bolt fell out and allowed a bowling ball sized rock to slide out and strike them in the upper back, resulting in a possible muscle strain/sprain (no bruising, x-ray and CT scan negative). No problems with equipment or compliance issues, training or PPE.
