Bazano already has two Hitachi ZX870-3 excavators and good experience with these machines led the company to invest in further Hitachi equipment. ”When Groupe Bazano was able to resume mining works after a period of civil unrest, it knew that it would need more equipment and decided Hitachi was the only choice for them,” said Demimpex training and mining support manager Alexandre Stroinovsky.
