end of the tunnel. On their way,

a little less than half

_. way.down the tunnel, Weber
~ and Sawatsky would pass a

powder magazine.
But as just as the pair turned

the corner all four heard a

‘small bang’’,a sound they all.
recognized — the detonation of
a blasting cap on a ‘‘B’’ line.

’ Anderson explains that'a “B’’

line consists of several fuses

~ linking several explosive charges

and is connected by a blasting

cap which is detonated’ by a
main fuse. Five seconds later, an

estimated 2,900 sticks of

‘dynamite exploded. The blast

created a 2,500-degree C.
fireball, an expert from Cana-
dian Industrial Laboratories
{explosives manufacturer)
testified at the inquiry.

As Anderson described the

- scene, the concussion of the ex-

plosion threw bodies against the
rock walls of the tunnel killing
and injuring them. He says he
was told later that Weber was
he died
on impact. Sawatsky was
thrown only 10 feet but he too
died on impact., Anderson:
himself, who had some protec-
tion due to the bend in the tun-

_ nel, was thrown about 60 feet
into a rock face and suffered

multiple fractures. Cassidy was

uninjured and the rock driller-

suffered from smoke inhalation.
Anderson says there was a lot

of smoke following the explo-

sion and it was necessary to
evacuate immediately. But there

” were no stretchers underground.

He was driven out over the
rough surface of the tunnel bot-
tom in the bucket of a front end
loader. He. was then driven to

the first aid station and lifted

out by helicopter about 20
minutes later. Because of the
suspicious nature of the blast,
Anderson says, he and at least
three other mine employees were
given lie detector tests by the
RCMP, and one was questioned
while under hypnosis. All of
them passed the tests, he says.

After that experience, Ander-
son says, he will never work, .

underground again. He was ask-
ed about other conditions in the
mine and offered the following
information -- some of which
Newhawk has since taken steps
to correct. Wolsey says shortly

Anderson says they now: have a ©
telephone system so workers can -

summon help in an emergency.
But “powder .magazine’’ isn’t
necessarily what it’s imagined to
be.

He's not: familiar with other

mining operations, but Ander-
son says that at Newhawk this
term refers to open wooden
shelyes containing boxes of

dynamite, blasting caps and

fuses at various points in the
mine. Ventilation in the mine is
very poor, He says mining
operations had to be shut down

one day due to the quantity of

couldn’t see anything,’’ he says.
“Even the gum I was chewing
was full of dust.’’ ;

And finally, the ‘money’s
good: “You can easily. clear

$5,000 a month.”? But anyone

can get a job. Anderson says you
need no experience and no
references. Anderson himself
was hired just before his Grade
12 graduation ceremonies and

‘was on the job only a few days |
‘later. And after a short tour of

the mine, ‘‘So you don’t get
lost,”” a worker can be on
his own. ;

And the explosion at
Newhawk isn’t the only incident
to come: under investigation in
recent months, In early January,
Stewart Husband of Terrace
died when. he was apparently
crushed by a loader. Wolsey says
another inquiry is scheduled to
investigate the circumstances of
that accident. Tomorrow, an in-
quest will be held in Stewart to
find the cause of an accident at
Skyline’s Johnny Mountain gold
mine that killed 19-year old Ter-

Tace resident Kelly McKew,
