Narrative

A roof fall was discovered on 2nd South Mains at wall #80. The fall was 25 ft long, 25 ft wide and 6 ft high and impaired travel in the intake travel way. The area was mined in 2011 and was supported with 6 ft resin bolts. The area appeared to become unstable over time due to a localized geological change from shale to a shale/sand rock lamination.
