News Mining inquest will be held in Sudbury, four years after a rock fall killed a 47 yr old man SHARE ON: Taylor Ablett, staff Wednesday, Dec. 16th, 2015 Photo: Supplied More than four years after he died, the coroner will hold an inquest into the death of a Sudbury miner. Forty-seven-year-old Stephen Perry was preparing an underground area at Vale’s Coleman Mine for blasting when he was crushed by a 14-ton rock fall. The Ministry of Labour ruled the rock fall was unexpected and took place with no warning. As a result, no one was charged. The coroner will hear from 10 witnesses at the inquest which is scheduled for five days and begins February 22nd. (Written by Rocco Frangione)
