At approximately 11:00 a.m. on Monday, February 25, 2008, Bruce E. Makin, a 50-year old contract surveyor with 7 years 5 months of mining experience and 19 weeks as a surveyor, was fatally injured in a powered haulage accident. The accident occurred as the victim was locating a survey spad just outby a run-through check curtain at Amfire Mining Company's Nolo Mine. A shuttle car hauling coal from the face traveled through the check curtain and struck and ran over the victim while hauling coal to the belt feeder. The victim was discovered by the shuttle car operator while tramming the shuttle car back to the face area.
