[Old School]

One death happened on a Surface Mine a Dozier operator hit a gas line or gas well an started a fire the operator was killed.
The other death happened in a underground mine when the rib (like a wall) broke lose and knocked a wooden post over on top of a miner. These are called rib rolls and usually happen in the thicker seams.

Prayers go out to the family and friends
