- Back filling in progress at Pioneer Coal in Stellarton NS. You can dig or push as much material around as you want but eventually you gotta haul it somewhere. TheCAT and Komatsu Rock Trucks step up to the plate to carry the stripped rock layer from mine bottom to top.

Years late comment here but this is awesome, wow those loads could've made a lot more gravel and road base material
I worked on a gravel crusher in Alberta for about 7 years. I fell in love with the noise and the whole process. I truly miss it.
The effort that goes in to making a light come on..
Awesome
Awesome video, l have lost count how many times l have watched this!!!
Great job DigzBig...
How wrong I was. I was way wrong 6 yrs ago on this. Its correct, you're home every day. And you do make the same or even better money. Even if you made less it would be much better than going back to living like a "Nomad", in a truck 24/7.
Wow amazing 👍
Very good nice att big truck dump
This is being done with 100 ton trucks, small by today's standards at many mines. Imagine doing this same job with 15 or 20 ton Euclids like they did when I was a kid.
These trucks are able to manuever the tight roads. My the road is narrow. You could not drive a 797 or a big belaz
Nice!
nice video
That's in Nova Scotia, a little too far to go at this point!!!
GOOD VIDEO DIGZBIG
Love the noise!
Is the outside rear tire on second truck a little low or is it my eyes getting old?
Nice 👍👍👍👍👏👏👏👏👏
How many tons do those trucks carry, I can't watch this video enough. Awesome!!!
+John M. Evangelis I have seen the side digital scales at times showing over 100 ton. Thanks for viewing.
it varies, from 20 ton to 200 ton
it's hard to read the model number, but it seems to be the 777D, which is 90 ton
www.ritchiespecs.com/specification?type=Mining&category=Rock+Truck&make=Caterpillar&model=777D&modelid=93331
These are nowhere near the size of the 797s. Those haul 300t. These are probably closer to 100
These are cat 777 trucks, I don’t like them. ideally 100 tonne but you can overload to about 115 and they’ll still carry. Sometimes if overloaded you have to “throw” the tub when you tip off.. but don’t let the bosses see you do that lol
Amazing , but what is this construction?
Nice
Nees more!
Good point. Those 1st clips were taken a different day .Re-titled accordingly.
All those stone and rocks can you bring some here I really appreciated
What does the red digital number on the side of the truck mean?
That is the weight of the load the truck is carrying.
Good clip=).
Agree!

I just came to this vid to see what rock trucks do. A guy asked me if I ever drove a rock truck. I'm glad I said no. I would hate to do that crap hr after hr day after day! It would have to drive you crazy.Wow. But it may be better than OTR truck driving.
Justsay'n i like this video
The guy knows how to Drive the truck
Alot better pay and home every night.
Nice💪💪💪❤❤❤❤
The problem is, in Vegas area anyway, you basiclly have to be in the Teamsters. I got on their list & was on it for a number of years. I even got my mine certification. And never got called on. You have to be a relative or even worse an Affirmative Action type or you'll probaby never get on, except by some freak of accident.
DigzBig, do you have any more dumping videos like this one?
I've more saved raw footage but no prepared videos at this time.
I'll be waiting for it. Can you imaging how many tons and truck loads it would take to fill that crater with those rocks?
Whats the point on pumping the throttle like the first truck did?
Diego Mayán hes giving gas so the pump can give more oil to the cilinder. So he tips faster
No he’s what we would call a cowboy wannabe, and wouldn’t be behind the wheel very long.
What does the number display on the side show? Machine identification or the load weight?
The LED display is the load weight.
Was the Dozer driver asleep or on his phone😂 severe lack of edge protection and tipping clear like that is way too risky in the event of machine failure or driver error, that's how ppl in mining and quarries get killed. Like the video though 👍
The site looks extremely dangerous
@@rolandharris2706 Am a retired haultruck driver-labor.Used to build up berms using 33/11 Terex and there were some hairy experiences.Life got much better with Cat 777.That is life in mining-quarry.
nice
(Brazil) Could someone explain to me why they were discarding this huge amount of material !! ?? They are taking it from somewhere and depositing or discarding it elsewhere. I would love to know why.
The operation is all in one big area. They dig down to the coal seam and then remove it, process the coal and truck it to the coal burning power plant 15 minutes away. The top layer you see being dumped is over burden being used to fill the extra space that the coal seam would have occupied in another area of the pit.
@@DigzBig Thanks for the attention and explanation ... I really like these videos. hug
so that's who was filming us all this time
Yup likely either myself or jimhowdigsdirt.
Spending millions of $$$ on equipment and fuel building a modern civilization awesome 👏
Very good dump for trucks tipping and also open space with well drain dump area
and with all this stuff is economical coal miningl ? making electricity from coal must stay in 20th century .....
and that red number means just car number or load or weight of rocks ?
you ungrateful little shit
It's a payload meter
Off side dumping and no windrow, glad I don't work on that site,
Aren't those million dollar trucks? They should have high end cameras & sensors that beep no?
Don't want to be a stickler for details But ,the title says Cat trucks & in the description it says Cat trucks step up to the plate. You do know that the first trucks in the video are Komatsu's right?
Yk
Why are they dumping there?
It's a reclamation project. After removing the coal, the company is required to restore the land by refilling the pits.
Im lives stivan rock
Anybody see the rolling stones??????
I never got it ~ what is the sense of loading and moving overburden from one place to another? What is this mine organization going to do with all this back fill slag waste. Why isn't this overburden crushed and used for something useful? Seems like a huge waste of energy and money.
Most of the overburden is just piled as the coal company has an agreement to fill in the pits when done providing the town with prime land for development. Prior it was undermined with old shafts and sink holes.
alot of overburden from coal mines is acid generating rock... can't use it for nothing other than filling in the mine when the're done.
they will be selling the mine site for houses like there doing in westville about five km away from stellarton who would like to put up a house on coal mine slag and nice black coal dust NOT I.
What the digital number on the side of the truck about?
skymooov1 its the number of the machine so if it breaks down they say the number and they know exactly wich ones down
Cat 777g
maby buy a crusher and sell processed rock
ksstce jj
You buy it, I'm sure they will sell as much waste rock as you can handle. LOL
bonjour vous allez faire quoi ensuite

I would rather watch paint dry than do that all day.

our son drove a rock truck 12 hour shifts out west and he loved it but he made twice the pay these guys make and only work 5 days a week.this is why most people here in pictou county NS packed up and went out west.
What a Tit you must be...
Those are not rock trucks.
Well I sure don’t miss driving those stupid things , Brain dead job
A boring brain dead type of job that would be.
