The latest confirmed development in lantern fault is that the affected crew has tried the revised procedure under ordinary working conditions. The update comes from the Lantern Fault below the east water gallery; officials have not announced a permanent change to the rule.
Gevra Sol, geology reader assigned to the east crews, confirmed 67 lamp readings taken at the marked stations in the latest file. The previous count was 68. The figures do not yet resolve whether a new side passage can be surveyed without drawing the east crew into an unmeasured seam.
The unresolved point is specific: The draft suggests an open connection, but the old map records a collapse in the same direction. No finding has established that either account is final.
The current arrangement remains in place. The office has not said whether it will change before the next review.
NEXT UPDATE: The crew will hold the face while a remote lamp is lowered beyond the fourth marker. The file will be updated when the second check is complete; until then, the confirmed record is narrower than the claims around it.
