Fatal accidents 2004–05

A prospector died on a small mine after falling 12.5 m down a mine shaft. He was travelling up the shaft on top of a full kibble, and had just reached the surface when the rear guy rope of the headframe detached from its anchor point. This caused the headframe to detach and resulted in the fall.
