Employee #3 was bringing in drums of magnesium powder. Employees #1 and #2 were using a length of steel pipe to loosen a blockage in a magnesium batching hopper. The pipe caused a spark to ignite a magnesium powder flash fire and explosion. Employees #1 and 2 were killed and Employee #3 was injured. | ||||||
