Continue forward into the large open space, and find your way atop one of the walkways where you can find a Blue Chest with a Tumbleweed.
From the platform with the blue chest, jump atop the cube cage closest to you. Then use a Bomb and toss it into the cube cage with an opening on top of it. This will break the rubble inside revealing a Timeshift Stone.
Activate this Timeshift stone to reveal a small area of influence around it. It will also revive the nearby fallen Technoblins. Take these enemies out, being careful not to strike their electric weapons. Once defeated, the cages will open.
Speak to the the LD-301 who is now free from its cage. As thanks, he will upgrade your Beetle to a Hook Beetle.
Using your newly acquired Hook Beetle, you may now grab the Bombs from atop the trees and drop them into the statues. Do this on the west set of statues to create platforms that will help you traverse the sinksand.
Soon you'll find yourself in the Desert Gorge. There are several timeshift stones on the peaks of the rocky structures which you can activate.
Take out the nearby Technoblin then ride the cart across the gap.
Use your Hook Beetle to take a bomb from the tip of the cactus and drop it into the trunk of the tree stump to your left. This will activate a Timeshift stone in this part.
To your right, there are 4 stone pillars. Use your Hook Beetle to bomb the rocks atop one of them to reveal a timeshift stone. Defeat the Technoblins nearby then speak to the LD-301.
Now that you are at the quarry, move towards the west part of the invisible paths. You'll find two statues you can topple over, the left one of which will have the second terminal we're looking for.
Use a bomb to open up the crack on the left wall to reveal a timeshift stone. Now you can interact with the terminal by thrusting your sword into it. Turn your sword 90 degrees counterclockwise to activate this terminal.
Head to the northmost part of the quarry and you'll find a crack in the wall. Blow it up with a bomb and go through.
In this room, you'll have to roll bombs across the sinksand to destroy groups of rocks. In the middle is a hidden timeshift stone. Activating it will reveal the past form of this warehouse.
Take an Ampilus Egg and roll it into the machine near the North end of the warehouse. This should open the gate next to it.
Head inside and thrust your sword into the machine inside. Turn your sword 90 degrees counterclockwise to activate this terminal.
The final terminal will be at the southeast portion of the map.
Enter the Cache and make your way through it. Just like the warehouse, you'll have to look for the timeshift stone to revert this cache to how it was in the past.
Climb up one of the boxes along the north wall just before the gap before deactivating the timeshift stone. Defeat an Ampilus and ride its shell across the sand.
Once across the path you can climb the boxes along the west wall to get to a Blue Chest with an Eldin Ore inside. Afterwards you can push down the nearby iron box.
Activate the nearby timeshift stone.With the cache back in the past, send a Hook Beetle to bring an Ampilus egg for you to place in the machine by the gate.
Exit the Cache and return to the large machine near the center of the mining facility. Rotate the water symbol to point in the 9 o'clock direction, then push in.
Rotate the fire symbol to point in the 4 o'clock direction, then push in.
Finally, rotate the lightning symbol to point in the 12 o'clock direction, then push in. A cutscene will play revealing the entrance to the mining facility.

Unless I'm blind you missed a chest with a goddess plume in the small room with the "electricity" symbol generator. It's left up on a platform right when you enter after opening the door with that little electric ball. Sloppy job! Again, unless I don't see it.
