For Becky’s squares, these mining truck angles, from Kalgoorlie. For reference, or perspective, my husband and I are 175cm tall.
The Kalgoorlie Super Pit in WA was the biggest open cut gold mine in Australia until 2016. A larger one in WA was opened that year.
The Caterpillar 793C is about 6.5m high (21.1 ft).

Yes, those things are massive.I don’t think people fully comprehend the sale of mining operations in WA.
