Mr Peadon was a resident of The Caves, a rural fire service volunteer, and an experienced dragline operator who had worked at the open-cut mine since 2006. In a statement to the ASX on Thursday, the company said the safety of its workers was its most important priority and it was committed to an injury-free workplace.
Mr Smyth said while the proceedings were unlikely to bring closure for his family, he hoped there would be some answers as to why he lost his life in the workplace.
