Narrative

In the Arturo pit at approximately 01:30 am, shovel 191 was working on the 5200-bench trim Pattern #19, cleaning up the blasted material. The shovel bucket made contact with explosives, causing it to detonate. This caused damage to the window. All employees were safe, and no injuries were sustained.
