i can t explain how you are taking such a huge piece of equipment the size of a trailer cut. cutting a road in the side of the mott and start drilling. it s the most unbelievable and god bless them they are giving it all they have. and it s a slow process. can i ask you. i just spoke with an expert who said this mine is known as a gassy mine. and there were safety violations just in the last month. was this disaster preventable? from our state and federal people who basically have the responsibility of looking and doing all the mine inspections, that s an easy answer. all explosions are preventable. it s just making sure you have things in place to keep one from occurring.
