All of us at BHP are deeply saddened by the passing of our colleague
Nathan Scholz as a result of an incident on a surface access road at
Olympic Dam in South Australia on 25
April.
Nathan was
25 years old and worked for Exact Mining Services, a contracting partner to
BHP.
Our deepest
sympathies are with Nathan’s family, friends and colleagues, and our primary
focus is supporting them at this difficult time.
We are
working with South Australia Police and SafeWork SA to understand what happened
and support their investigations. BHP is also conducting its own investigation.
