Can someone here perhaps tell me what this is?
A friend of mine found it near an off the grid gold mining town in Canada.

it's used to separate cream from milk, by spinning it and using centrifugal force so that the heavier cream moves to the outside and can be skimmed off.

They look the scoops from a bucket dredge.

That's what it seems to be indeed, thanks!

Hey, yeah, can you erm, can you identify this thing for me? I've got photographs for you of it don't worry.

Right, right, now, here's the first one, as you can see I tried my best to capture as few "working surfaces" as possible, I also shot it from a low angle. Oh but don't worry, I followed that up with a slightly different shot of the same side, again taking care to avoid capturing anything that may actually make the picture useful as an identification device except on the off-chance that someone actually knows specifically what it is to begin with.
Is that good enough?

Yet someone gave me the correct info within 30 minutes, and you dig up this thread just to make an ass out of yourself.
Also, like I said in the OP, these are not my pictures. There were a bunch of pictures from a trip my friend went on, this was visible in 2 of them, and I wondered what it was.

Guessing these scoops in particular are set up on a sled for use with a dragline. So technically they are scoops from a dragline.

it's the danglehopper 9001

Incorrect my friend,
The danglehopper 9001 was machined steel and welded joints, as well as being a hydraulic drive system.

This is a 9000 model, identifiable by the cast buckets riveted together, and a purely mechanical drive.
