As I was waiting to take my next shot I figured it would be the best opportunity to grab a quick selfie.
Yup, here’s me trying out some new digs to go with my gear. I’m sportin Jannatec’s Johnny Light and am fixin (ya I said that) to get one for myself. I also got to play around with several other Jannatec products that I think will change the safety game by leaps and bounds.
This is the new control room for Totten Mine in Northern Ontario. It looks extremely sophisticated and complex, but I bet you could play a mean game of Call Of Duty on it.

An Atlas Copco representative goes over the head assembly with a diamond driller inside the coreshack. The new Excore head assembly is designed to reduce inventory with its ability to convert from a surface system to a pump-in system for drillers who work in both surface and underground operations.
A diamond driller changes out the bit to be replaced with a new one. Choosing the correct bit for the type of rock being drilled is key to optimum performance of the bit.
Inside this Ontario steel foundry a worker looks on as the sand molded casting is set ablaze.
On a recent photoshoot with Atlas Copco I was handed “The Professional Diamond Driller” handbook. It featured images I have created for them over the years. A lot of the times when I create custom mining photography for my clients I do not always see the end result in how the images are used so I am always a bit intrigued when I come across these publications.
Workers use an onscreen control software to monitor, record data, and operate the drill rig.
A worker pulls the rods from the drill rig as another helper awaits the next one. In the colder months, heat is pumped into the coreshack as you can see by the red tubing in the lower right.
