DescriptionThe scraper was operated from the front where it would drag ore up the ramp and over the top of a screen to limit the size of the rock going to the crushers. Oversize rocks would be cracked smaller with a sledge hammer. The gable car underneath was filled and then joined onto the rake cars and taken to an ore pocket to be dumped.RightsPublic DomainCollectionReginald O'BrienSubjectMiningMining SitesMining Equipment
