According to a report from the Hamilton Spectator, emergency
crews were called to a facility at the Carmeuse Lime Quarry just before 2p.m.

was pronounced dead at the scene.
The 29-year-old man was working as a welder at the quarry. He was found on a second story platform near the kilns. While there has been no confirmation of how the death
occurred, there is speculation that it might have been the result of a fall.
The Ministry of Labour was called in to conduct an investigation.
