How does the mine examiner show evidence of examination?

The evidence of examination is shown through placing initials and the date at the examined location. This practice is important as it serves as a direct and verifiable record that inspections were conducted in specific areas of the mine. By marking their initials and the date in the actual location being examined, the mine examiner creates a clear, immediate reference that can be observed by others, thereby enhancing accountability and safety.

This method provides tangible proof of compliance with safety protocols and regulations, allowing for easier tracking of inspections over time. It ensures that there is a documented history of examinations, which is essential for both legal compliance and maintaining safe working conditions within the mine.
