- Rock quarry crushing operations HD. Check out this fully operational rock crushing operation making gravel. I show you all the equipment in operation including loading and unloading giant rock trucks. We follow the process from loading rocks into the hopper, adding sand at just right spot, all the way through to being loaded on rock trucks and stockpiled. It is a fascinating look behind the scenes of how we get the right gravel mix for road construction.

Definitely worth watching. I operate a loader in a small limestone quarry in the states and a crusher setup like that would be something to drool over.
Very good. I'm glad you enjoyed it Gary. I grew up on the edge of a river valley and know the sound of a crusher nearby!
There's always something new or interesting to see. Stay tuned for further nonsense and entertainment my friend and thanks for watching and for your comment.
Thank you.
Glad you enjoyed it. I was going to make a video of another one the other day, but couldn't exactly stop working so made a short video as I drove past.
Always something happening! Stay tuned for further nonsense and entertainment my friend. Thanks for watching and for your comment.
I run a Volvo 40 ton haul truck and they had scales on them, thats how we kept track on the tonage, about once a week we had to recalibrate the scales, they were about 99% accurate.
That would be way simpler hey? A guy would haul a wack of gravel in a week while stockpiling!
very interesting vid llc!
Thanks Felix I'm glad you enjoyed it. There is so much in the world to see that truly is interesting.
What does llc mean? I'm not too good at shortcuts and abbreviations.
Stay tuned for further nonsense and entertainment my friend.
@@lovesloudcars 'er....Loves Loud Cars!
@@felixthecleaner8843 that's hilarious! Maybe not so observant on my part though!
Gonna show that to my kids, they'll think it's funny.
What a great video. Thanks for posting it! When I was working at the mines I got to see a cone crusher like that only it was about 20ft deep and 40ft across. Man that was a lot of buttons in that control room, hope they are labeled well haha
They didn't look very well labeled to me, but I guess they were enough for the operator. Not exactly my shortest video, but a neat tour.
That mining crusher would be something else.
Great video! I used to run one of two crushing operations for my old employer, also had a decent sized washing plant setup. Its pretty crazy how much goes into making big rocks smaller lol. We ran a jaw primary with a cone secondary, pretty much identical to this. Lots of moving parts if one thing goes down in the chain you gotta be quick to shut it down or youve got a hell of a fun mess on your hands!
I'm glad that you enjoyed it! Sometimes videos of things you're familiar with aren't enjoyable to watch.
I grew up next to a gravel pit area and saw crushers lots, but never got to get a good tour. There's lots of things to see in the world that are interesting.
Thanks for subscribing, hopefully the variety of things I post will be entertaining to you. I've got a few videos that have had lots of traffic like blowing up beaver dams, pushing one out with a log skidder and a couple of my 59 Chevy pickup with a Detroit engine and 2 transmissions.
Happy viewing!
Great Video!!! A masterpiece, symphony, ballet in motion.
Glad you liked it Joe. There's always something to see. Check out my playlists if you're interested in seeing a big variety of stuff. Either way, thanks for watching and for your comment. Stay tuned for further nonsense and entertainment my friend.
@@lovesloudcars i grew interested in quarry’s because of the DB Cooper skyjacking case. Are you familiar with it?
@@joehalliday6081 I don't think so. If there's a bunch of information or links to it post them here or email them to me at lovesloudcars@gmail.com.
I'll try to have a look this evening
@@lovesloudcars the skyjacker may have been Canadian.
Would not be a good outcome, if you fell into that crusher lol! Massive electric motors running those belts and things. Thanks for taking us on the tour!
Hard to know what to cut out! I've seen them all my life & never had a tour.
Interesting👍👍👍…..heck of an operation . Are they running 24/7 ? Last question… what were all the rail cars for in the background? Thanks Great video👍👍👍
I don't know about this one, but ad a kid I know they did run 24 hours in the valley below our house.
The rail cars behind is a spur off a sand plant that processes frac sand for oil and gas well completion.
A most excellent and highly informative as well as practical working perspective video. Thank you so much for the time you spent in preparing this video......
Thanks tons for the compliment. Glad you enjoyed it. Stay tuned for further nonsense and entertainment my friend.
Always family friendly, hopefully entertaining and always admired - at least by my little grandson.
Love to look through that old river bed when exposed. Full of good stuff I'm sure. 32 ton a load, of good stuff👍 grew up around mines, thanks for the vid, good one🤜👍
I've been around these things since my early childhood, but never had a tour. Gotta be a few treasures. I know at another river the Big Smoky the loader man found a big Buffalo bone in the gravel seam. Makes a guy wonder how things get where they are.
@@lovesloudcars we have found everything from Petrified wood to petrified Bones it is actually really interesting things you find
@@lovesloudcars exactly brother
Down the river from River valley Crushing for Barrhead Transit mix I work for these guys we have the same type of crusher. Getting close to the end of the season. We have a stacker
I've been around them my whole life. ( grew up on a river valley with a couple pits not far away), but never took a tour before. There seems to be no end for the need of gravel.
Running a rock truck stockpiling might get old after a while.
@@lovesloudcars It amazes me how much gravel is along the Athabasca river river and how hard the rock is.
@@Dextamartijn me too. It's no small river & the crushers say it's hard crushing compared to most other places. I know here at least, it's the best gravel around.
When Is a a rock truck not a rock truck? When Its a dump truck 😁
You bet!
Hope you enjoyed the video.. always something to see it seems.
Stay tuned for further nonsense and entertainment my friend and thanks for watching and for your comment.
Hi Sir,
We need full informationabout your crushing plant(power supply ,types of rocks,tpypes final product sizes etc.)
I don't work for this rock crushing company, but I can get in contact with them if you want to communicate with them.
I can tell you they work as a contractor to crush gravel in Alberta Canada for private pit owners. As for specific details and capacities I cannot answer those questions. If you think they can answer questions email me and I'll try to pass your email on to the owner. My email is lovesloudcars@gmail.com
That is a whole lot of stuff burning diesel. Saint Greta would not be happy 🤣🤣🤣
Well, if she lived in a hand made yurt and wore clothing made only from animals fur and handpicked cotton plowed by oxen I'd go from zero to 4% interested in her opinion.
But yes. Lots going on there for sure. Funny enough, as you know I was raised rather close to a gravel pit, and this is the first tour that I ever had of a crusher.
Awesome vlog
I already hit the red button

Thanks! Always something to share. I don't live the life of a superstar, but there's always something to see and share. Stay tuned my friend.
Very nice and thanks for sharing great videos and Stay connected💗😉
Thanks for checking it out. Always something to share or show. Stay tuned.
👌🏼😀😮😲😮😀👍🏼 That’s Really Cool Nathan
Was a neat tour.
Winter is here in full force now. Feeling like Florida weather makes more sense...
@@lovesloudcars Come On Down Great Weather Here in The 80’s all Week 😀
@@chrischiampo7647 there's a really good reason why there's 300 million Mexicans and only 30 million Canadians...
that was great.
so, what would that 32 tons be in terms of cubic yards?
About 27-28 yards.
( not that I knew that, I had to ask). I've always wondered how accurate a yard was when it's just dumped in a heap.
It was certainly not my shortest video, but pretty tough to cut much out except me repeating about rivers flowing north.
Lol . Well we know for sure now which way they flow.
Was there another conveyor to carry off the dirt that falls through the screens?
There were conveyors off everything except the two big ones that the loader dumped onto. Lots of the fine stuff was added back in after all the crushing. This pit doesn't have much sand compared to many other places I've seen.
@@lovesloudcars so the reject replaces the sand i take it?
@@terrymacleod6882 I think here the sand was added back in after the the crushing and some reject was added as well. This was 2-1/2 inch if I remember, and having the extra fines added helps with compaction. (I think). No crushing expert, but that's what I think he explained the reasoning.
Amusement Park for Rocks.
Heck yes! - well maybe not.. in the same way a canning factory is an amusement park for sardines!
Hope you enjoyed it and thanks for watching and your comment.
