RE: Mining trucks
Yep, I know all about El Cubo as I help and oversee the planning and designing of it, definitely the craziest mine I have worked at where you it can take up to an hour driving underground from one mining area to the other, and there are lots of remnants like railway tracks, carts, altars, shaft equipment leftover from when other companies worked here and they used carts instead of tractors and trucks. We still use some rail underground but is limited to a small area.
Sadly no public tours, we only give them to potential investors really, there is just too much happening underground and it is a hot, sweaty and dirty place to be. Most visits we walk kilometres to visit just a few of the places!! There is a cool tourist one that I have done in Zacatecas which isn't too different to how we still work here, we have modernised a bit but it is a slow going process :)
