Kirkland Lake's Macassa gets first-ever battery-powered underground haul truck

摘要

Kirkland Lake Gold expanded its fleet of electric vehicles at its Macassa mine in early March, with the addition of Artisan Vehicles' Z40 40-tonne battery-powered underground haul truck. The Z40 is Artisans first-ever battery-powered truck. It was delivered to Macassa just a little over two months after Artisan delivered its A4 battery-powered load-haul-dump (LHD) to Kirkland Lake's Taylor mine near Matheson, Ontario.
