UNDERGROUND LOAD AND HAUL
Aramine’ s T500D miniDumper is the perfect complement to the L130 / L150 miniLoader range and will promote mechanisation in narrow vein mining
suspension, a safety door and a ROPS / FOPS certified canopy with back protection. Plus, the operator is side seated for better visibility in both directions.
This truck is capable of carrying 2.1 m 3, three times the capacity of the L130D / E miniLoader at speed.
As noted in last month’ s World Prospects section Aramine also has two new 15 t capacity mine trucks in its product line. The French company has put on the market the T1601C and the T1601M. Developed for small to medium scale underground operations, both T1601 models are described as ideal for drift sections of between 12 and 18 m 2 and they fit into 3 m x 3 m galleries.
RDH’ s Muckmaster 300EB, bucket capacity: 1.5 – 2.3 m ³
Electric power
We have devoted significant editorial space examining the growing use of and offerings in electrical power for underground machines. It is a very important developing trend.
Canada’ s RDH Mining Equipment, which is one of the leaders in battery powered mining equipment development, bringing battery power to the North American and Asian markets, is now working with strategic partners in Latin America to assist mines in transitioning to battery power. Sierra Metals, committed to being a leading corporate citizen in Peru, has taken the first step in transitioning to battery equipment with a RDH battery powered LHD at its Yauricocha mine. As the first mining company in Latin America to make the transition to battery powered mining equipment, Sierra Metals, with a focus on continuous improvement, said it could not ignore the health, environmental, operational and cost
