The main open-cast mine of Vanadium JSC, ore mining and processing enterprise of Kachkanar, put into operation the new ten-cube-capable ECG № 10 excavator produced by United Machine Building Works and electric machine works of Karpinsk.

According to the company’s spokesperson, this is the first apparatus received since the beginning of the year. It is going to take about three months to assemble.

‘The company’s management is thinking of gradual replacement of the mining equipment with the more updated versions, like this replacement of 8-cube excavators with the more powerful ones,’ the spokesperson said.
