Kher Shan that he mentions in the completion text is possibly a reference to Shere Khan of the Jungle Book.
"Today it's cave-ins and nibblers, tomorrow it'll be floods and jinyu. Just another day at the quarry."
Sorry to break it to you, Greenstone Miner, but it's looking like cave-ins and nibblers is all you and your friends will be getting for the foreseeable future.

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Mann's Man
<For once, the foreman lowers her voice.> Look, this ain't easy... I got another favor to ask. My idiot husband, Hao, is a shift lead down at the quarry. I told him not to go back, that it was too dangerous, but he's as stubborn as a hozen and twice as stupid.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- What's Mined Is Yours
Aw'right, so you need jade, do ya? I'd say we owe you at least that - we got plenty in the quarry, and thanks to yer help we should be back on schedule in no time. I should probably get back to the wife, so let's you and me take this cart o' the good stuff straight to her.
