Engineer A the Chief Engineer for a long established mine, engaged Geoscientist B to study the mine operations and to devise more efficient methods for estracting ore from the old mine During a site inspection, the geoscientist travelled down the shaft into the drifts (tunneh) which led to the ore face. During this detailed tour of the mine, Geoscientist B observed many infractions of safety provisions: methane detectors were missing from the deepest parts of the mine, vertlation was poor in many areas of the mine, shoring was old ard appeared to be ceteriorating; thick dust covered equipment and could have been a source of dangerous dust explosions. Although Geoscientist 8 had not been hired to examine mine safety, the geoscientist nevertheless mentioned these concerns to Engneer A wha agreed that safety was a major worry. Engineer A explened that several proposals for safety improvements had been made over the years, but the senior mine management had rejected them, ating the marginal profitability of the mine and the fact that costly changes couid cause the mine to close. what would you do if you where engineer A Geo scientist B, what would you do at this point?
