A mining machine assembly includes a dipper having a main body, the main body having a front side, a back side, a bottom side, and a top side. A ground engagement portion extends from the front side, the ground engagement portion including digging teeth. The mining machine assembly also includes a hoist rope attachment assembly coupled to the dipper. The hoist rope attachment assembly is configured to directly couple a hoist rope to the dipper. The hoist rope attachment assembly includes a cam having a first portion extending from the top side of the main body of the dipper, and a second portion that extends from the first portion and away from the main body and digging teeth.

The invention relates to a method of monitoring the movement of an ore body resulting from blasting, the method comprising: positioning a plurality of blast movement monitors in a blast zone in the ore body, each of the blast movement monitors having a monitor identifier; attributing pre-blast coordinates to said blast movement monitors; blasting the ore body; attributing post-blast coordinates to said blast movement monitors; collating said post-blast coordinates and transmitting said post-blast coordinates to a data collector, wherein post-blasting said blast movement monitors form a sub-surface mesh network and said step of collating said post-blast coordinates comprises communicating said post-blast coordinates between blast movement monitors within said sub-surface mesh network.

A bearing component for mounting a replaceable milling drum on an earth working machine includes an annular connecting flange having a central axis. A bearing stem protrudes from the connecting flange axially in a first direction to a first axial end, the bearing stem having an outer surface including at least first and second cylindrical bearing surfaces axially spaced from each other. The bearing stem further includes a centering recess open at a second axial end opposite the first axial end, the centering recess including an opening angle decreasing in steps so that the centering recess tapers in the first direction, the centering recess forming a portion of the central opening.

A replaceable milling drum for an earth working machine includes a milling drum tube and a protrusion structure fixed to the milling drum tube. A bearing stem protrudes from the protrusion structure axially away from a drive axial end of the milling drum tube. The bearing stem has an outer surface including at least first and second cylindrical bearing surfaces axially spaced from each other, a furthest one of the cylindrical bearing surfaces from the drive axial end having a smaller diameter than a next furthest one of the cylindrical bearing surfaces from the drive axial end, the bearing stem having a central opening therethrough co-axial with the drive axis.
