Published in Kalgoorlie Miner dated 26 September 2013, this photo was taken in the rope rescue scenario during the 2013 Mining Emergency Response Competition (MERC), held on the 21- 22 September 2013 in Langley Park, Perth.
The MERC provides a valuable opportunity for emergency response teams from resources companies to demonstrate their skills across a range of emergency response scenarios. The competition enables participating teams to demonstrate their training, expertise and professionalism and at the same time brings recognition to the wider community of the value and importance of emergency response and rescue training.
We were engaged as the official photographer for the event.
