As I was airborn last week for some aerial photography I came across a few local aggregate sites that I though had some interesting layouts. The aggregate process is very complex and somewhat of a science when it comes to efficient production. Sites like these have streamlined this process to achieve maximum effeciencey in the shortest amount of time.

Another Ontario Mine Site image taken from the air. This mine has been re-instated and for the past few years has transformed itself into a state of the art, modern, working mine.

I few months ago I had the opportunity to photograph some heavy equipment with Pioneer Construction at one of their open pits. By itself this truck looks like a Tonka Toy in a sandbox, but as soon as you put a person in the frame to show some scale, you can see just how enourmous this Caterpillar Off Highway Truck is.
It was a pleasure working with this company and their employees as they all showcased the upmost professionalism and courtesy.
It takes a lot of man-power (and machine power) to create the foundation of a successful mine. Load and transporting ground materials is just part of the process.
