FQM mining excavator and large haul truck, Zambia


A photo of a Komatsu excavator dropping rocks (ore) into a large haul truck. In the foreground a FQM employee is dwarfed in size by the massive machinery. The Trident project, located 150 kilometers west of Solwezi in north-west Zambia, is comprised of the Sentinel copper mine development and the Enterprise nickel mine development. This photo was taken in the open cast mine at Sentinel. Trident was obtained through the acquisition of Kiwara PLC in February 2010 by First Quantum (FQML).
