Introduction
This Lynas started in western Australia known as the Mt Welt Lynas mine and that's where
the rare earth oxides were mined and initially processed at the Mt Weld Concentration Plant.
is now the world's most important producer of rare earth materials isolated outside of China.
also, recently they have established another mine in Australia known as Kalgoorlie. it is also
located in Western Australia and is part of the Lynas 2025 growth strategy. Furthermore, the
Lynas Mt Weld Mine in Western Australia is recognized as one of the world's premier rare
earth deposits. Lynas also operates the world's largest single rare earth processing plant in
Malaysia where it produces high quality isolated rare earth materials for export to
manufacturing markets in Asia, Europe and the United States. This rare material is used for
various electrical products including turbines and hybrid cars. The rare earth oxides are
mined and initially processed at the Mt Weld Concentrate Plant, the materials are then
shipped to our 100-hectare state-of-the-art materials plant in Gebeng, Malaysia, where the
concentrate is separated and processed into high-quality Rare-Earth materials. among the
products produced by Lynas are Neodymium and Praseodymium (NdPr) used in magnets,
Lanthanum (La), Cerium (Ce) and Mixed Heavy Rare Earths (SEG). This is as little as we
can know about this Lynas.
Incident In Lynas

The accident case that we got after interviewing or discussing with some safety people at
Lynas company is a case related to loss time injury. This loss time injury case is one that
involves the accident victim taking MC for more than four days. the case involved only one
employee. the information we can explain for this case is less detailed. this is also privacy for
the factory. therefore, I can only provide information that we have obtained during
discussions with Lynas. The case of loss time injury discussed here is the accident case of the
victim falling down the drain. this incident happened while the victim was throwing garbage
and during the journey the victim may not have noticed the presence of a drain in front of him
which caused the victim to fall. the information obtained is that the depth of the drain is about
the same length as the height of a person's leg to knee. The injury sustained by the victim is
an injury to the leg. for this case a report needs to be prepared to be sent to the DOSH
Department because this case involves LTI.
Investigation Team
During Accident

when the accident happened, according to the discussions we had, the workers who were near
the victim helped and checked the victim's condition. after checking the condition of the
victim who can be treated using first aid only, they have made a line to call an ambulance.
Lynas has its own clinic that can perform first aid for minor injuries and due to the injuries
suffered by the victim being quite serious, the victim was treated in hospital.
Accident Analysis
Each factory has a different accident analysis and what we have learned also shows that there
are various analyzes that can be used when an accident occurs. This analysis also aims to find
the cause of the accident and so on. Therefore, the analysis used by Lynas when dealing with
this case is that they use why-why analysis and ICAM. This is becaobtained;gh the
information obtained, they use ICAM because this accident involves LTI. ICAM or its full
name is the incident cause analysis method is generally an industry safety analysis tool that
organizes investigative findings into a structured framework. The ICAM analysis explains
why the incident occurred and identifies all factors that contributed to the incident.
