In this episode, we followed up on our exploration of the Suncor Base Mine and put our focus more on the actual equipment used in the oil sands. From enormous graders to the legendary PC8000, we took a peek at the rental machines and the challenges of maintaining equipment in the harsh conditions of the oil sands. #mining #construction #heavyequipment
