At approximately 7:55 a.m., on Thursday, May 21, 2009, Jeremy L. Stewart, a 32-year old superintendent/equipment operator for J&A Mining, Inc, received fatal injuries when the Caterpillar (Cat) 773B rock truck, which he was operating, traveled over the edge of the spoil dump. The truck overturned length-wise onto its top, at the base of the spoil dump, approximately 63 feet below. Stewart had approximately 13 years mining experience in operating equipment, 11 months at this mine. Stewart was in the process of backing the loaded truck to the edge of the spoil dump in order to dump rock hauled from the pit, located approximately 1200 feet away. The accident occurred during Stewarts first load of the shift. There were no eyewitnesses to the accident.
