Summary:
Caballo is a cast blast, dozer-push, and truck and shovel operation. Coal is loaded with shovels and hauled to a hopper by end-dump trucks, where it is crushed and handled at a capacity up to 6,000 tons per hour. Crushed coal is transported to four storage silos by way of a 60-inch conveyor belt.
