SAFEmap has been working on a number of different projects this year all over the US and Canada. During these sessions, trainees practice their risk perception skills and learn about the factors that affect individual risk-behaviour in the workplace. Some of SAFEmap’s biggest clients at the moment are Walter Resources in Birmingham, Alabama and Peabody Mines located in various parts of Illinois. Walter has recently initiated a company-wide “Smartie” card system after successful CBS and Supervisor COACH training sessions. The Smartie system is similar to Procon’s “Scratchie” system. Peabody has been a long-time client of SAFEmap and has recently introduced more mines, such as Gateway and Francisco, to SAFEmap training. Because of this increase, we’ve also welcomed a number of new consultants to the SAFEmap team. SAFEmap hopes to attend a number of conferences in 2011 and 2012 that will help expand business into the logging and e lectrical industries.

Aerial shots of the CAT (Construction Access Tunnel) and MAT (Main Access Tunnel) entrances. New to the Forrest Kerr s ite are two E class Atlas Copco 4-Boom Jumbos (3 drilling booms and one man basket). This model of jumbo, a 2008 vintage machine, is a state-of-the-art jumbo with Advanced Boom Control and Tunnel Manager Software. Each jumbo has the capability of being fully automated or semi-automated with operator guidance. Forrest Kerr has opted to be semi-automatic with the operator having full manual control of the booms. Drill patterns are created on the computer through the Tunnel Manager Software and the information is sent to the drill. The drill hole positions and distances are shown on the display in the fully enclosed operator’s cab; from the cab the operator lines up the booms with the pattern on the screen and collars the holes. The machine is incredibly accurate down to the last centimeter and squares off the face with each round. The jumbo also has a built in navigation system complete with prisms to line itself up on the tunnel l ine.

Wolverine, YT Overview

Owner: Yukon Zinc Corp. Location: 190km North of Watson Lake, YT Mine Start Date: 2006 Procon Start Date: 2005 Resource: Zinc/Copper/Lead Procon’s Role: U/G Development & Production Procon Personnel on Site: 111 During Q2 of 2011 the team at the Wolverine Project has been working diligently towards our goal of seeing the Wolverine Mine reach its production target of 1700/tpd. The project has drastically increased its manpower by 50% since April 1st!! The Wolverine Project is getting ready to further ramp up with the following projects: new offices including a 3 bay mechanical shop, installation of paste lines, constructing multiple bulkheads underground, constructing a shotcrete plant, and decommissioning the old office and shop facilities. With an increase like this comes a new set of challenges. However, the foremost important goal to the crews and management of Wolverine is to work with the highest degree of safety; from ensuring proper equipment training is being performed, to educating and enforcing the need to report near misses. This message was conveyed during a “safety stand down day” all the crews received. The stand down day was to realign the project focus and to stress to the crews that safety is the most important goal to both Procon and Yukon Zinc. One might ask a Wolverine employee “how are you going to do this?” Their reply would be summed up in two words: “TEAM WORK!” Having said all that, the Wolverine team would like to introduce our two newest members, First, our new Project/Area Manager Jaime Delgado. Jaime brings a wealth of experience and knowledge that will without a doubt be very beneficial to helping us reach our overall goals. Second we would like to introduce our new Safety Officer, Bob McLean. Bob joins us from the QR Project where he was also a Safety Officer. Welcome to both Jaime and Bob!

We have been preparing for the upcoming shutdown which is scheduled to run from August until mid-November. The following are some of the projects from Q2 : • Alpine work has been ongoing with cutting floor and

stubs in various locations. • We did some more blasting at the conveyance shaft

that went very well. • A night shift crew was brought in to do cleaning in the

production shaft headframe prior to surface contractors beginning their work.

• The floor grating in the conveyance shaft was replaced with checkerplate. There was approximately 80’ of landings to replace.

• Work has continued on installing the load out conveyor system. The tail end jib and counterweight are installed. This also involved the installation of pulleys, gearboxes, and motors.

• We replaced the load cells on the weigh bins in production shaft.

• A total of 41 yards of concrete were poured around the production shaft. This concrete will support the upper hitch beams which in turn support the tower steel for the shaft and steel for the loading pocket.

• There has been a lot of labor intensive work involving hand chipping and shoveling muck. Thanks to all crews for the extra effort.

For the upcoming shutdown we will be running three crews of 18-20 men on a 4 week by 2 week rotation.

Burnaby Golf Tournament For the first time since 2008, Procon Head Office held a golf tournament “rain or shine” on June 18 2011. Not surprising that it turned out to be a “rain” and not “shine” event but everyone was in good spirits and had a lot of fun. This year, things were done a little differently; we asked that vendors contribute donations instead of prizes. All donations were given to “Variety-The Children’s Charity”. From vendors, staff, and contest entry fees, we managed to raise a total of $16,313.00! We would like to thank everyone that participated in the golf tournament and donated! We hope to raise even more next year!
