Resumen This is the first part of the report of the Chief Inspector of Mines and Quarries. There was a slight reduction in the number of reportable accidents below ground (171 in 1977; 162 in 1978), but a considerable increase in surface reportable accidents (from 63 to 84), with almost treble the number of fatalities (from 6 to 17). Curves for all accidents, falls of ground, and accidents during haulage and transport for 1947-1978 are given. Aspects reported are: accidents (support of workings, underground transport, machines, shafts, surface, other); dangerous occurrences; environment (ventilation, noise, airborne dust, with pneumoconiosis trends for 1958-1978); rescue services; mechanical engineering; electrical engineering; civil engineering. Appendices give statistics and a detailed analysis of electrical fires.
