Crazy how big those dump trucks are. They look big on the video, but you should stand next to one it's amazing. Kennecott did a huge home subdivision where an old tailing pile was a while back. They hauled the contaminated dirt out of there for a year plus. And put it back up at foot of mine. Had a small army of those truck running back and forth all day. Quite the site.

...nothing like a 300 ton rock hauler to make your day in mining!
