Loading and Hauling
Large electric-powered shovels are capable of scooping up to 100 tons of ore in a single pass. Mammoth haul trucks are capable of carrying more than 300 tons of material per load. Computers and global positioning satellite systems assist dispatchers in directing full loads to leach stockpiles or crushing plants, and in directing empty trucks back to available shovels.
