Heliminer and Operator

A Heliminer is a Remote Mining Vehicle; this posed shot shows the beast at rest.  The mined product is collected in the powered scoop at the front and passed along a belt to the following shuttle car.  When full the shuttle car connects to a horizontal belt system and discharges its load for transfer to the surface storage.

Pretty cool beast ehh!
