Pulled fan connector off logic board

While trying to install as SSD, I pulled the part of the fan connector that's soldered onto the logic board completely off. In other words, I pulled the actual socket off the logic board.

Anybody know what to do now?

Any advice is humbly appreciated...

Common to do this on the Mac Minis. Grab a micro soldering iron, and solder it back on at the anchor points.

If the connector is destroyed, replace it with a new one http://uk.rs-online.com/web/p/pcb-header...

If some of the pads are pulled off, you will need to solder wires to the correct location, and will need a schematic and board view.

Good luck!
