Warden's Court Finds Quarry Accident Causes
In Worden's Court the Warden Mr CR Noyes held a inquiry into the Cairns City Council quarry accident of January 30 1943. Henry A Day was seriously injured when stone shattered the hopper edge and struck his head. The court recommended widening the hopper, boarding higher from the feed point, and regular inspections to clear loose stones. Witnesses described Day's fall from the ladder and the weight of stones escaping from the chute. The finding cites unsafe chute sides and inadequate safeguards as factors.
