Assessment of the European Bucket-Wheel Excavator Technology

Abstract

Large volumes of material can be economically mined and moved by the continuous mining systems comprising bucket-wheel excavators, belt conveyors and stackers. To assess the state of art and applicability of this mining method to Canadian conditions, the field trip was organized to visit several typical mining operations in Europe.
