'miles'? It is not the dark ages anymore, DW. Tell your reporters to use standard units of measurement.

These diesel-electric with cont actors are pretty cool. When there is overhead power available, they run like a train, If they have to leave the grid for maintenance, to go around a lane blockage or to access remote locations, they switch on diesel generators like a WWII submarine. There's trials of this being done for big rigs on freeways.

We're pretty fortunate that our mines are located in areas that have both large rivers and are quite sparsely populated, meaning there is less competition for the hydropower. If either of these were not the case, I don't think running the stone mill on green energy alone would be possible.

It's nice to see that the copper refiners are taking pride in the quality of their copper ingots. I'm sure Nanni would be pleased after his unpleasant dealings with Ea Nasir a few years ago.

God damn, those trucks are absolutely massive.
-
I work there! As a heavy truck mechanic! We repair those trucks!
-
I like that waving is required
-
Hats off to the sound strategies implemented by the company👏👏
-
I was just there in that area tenting couple of days ago. Randomly watched this video and figured out that i am actually next to it. I went to have a peek at the quarry. Did not get too far but it is massive, surrounded by endless forests.

I have always admired Sweden, an industrialized country and a very civilized people
-
Amazing to see that in Sweden even a truck driver knows perfect English.
-
driving those machines does look like a really fun job. cleaning and repairing them is another story.
-
Makes me a little proud to be Swedish.

"Waving is required to see that you're awake and doing fine", I'm sure they were just greeting each other, just like busdrivers do when they pass each other
-
"Waving is required" has to be one of the funniest things I've heard in a while.
-
Fun to see the dam from my hometown in Norway, being used as an example for hydroelectric plant :) Clearly a superior dam
-
Can we just all agree how sick the beat is in the background?
-
Great project very well managed
-
Dear DW News: The trucks in this mine do not transport 600t of rock per trip. No truck in the world currently can. Ultra class trucks can transport 360-410t depending on manufacturer configuration and the Cat 795’s (used in this mine) maxed payload just barely gets into the bottom of the ultra class group with a max payload of 372t.
