The photograph to the left is of a DOSCO roadheader, a type of continuous miner that can be used to bore tunnels. It is electrically powered. The unit was used in a tunnel boring test project on Green Mountain near Jeffrey City, Wyoming. This photograph shows the DOSCO roadheader set up at the mouth of the Jackpot Mine portal.
