It is advisable to conduct mining operations in the conditions of the ultimate state of the opened massif with an increase in the pit wall slope angles below the limit of effective use of combined motor-conveyor transport in the cleaning-up zone of deep and ultradeep open pit mines to the final depth. Such a design of the pit walls is achieved when mining benches from top to bottom within the boundaries of steep-slope layers with the use of in-bench loaders in the cleaning-up zone. The conditions for the occurrenc...

The studies were performed using risk management tools during the operation of combined types of transport in open pit mining [1-5]. The goal is timely and efficient risks management during the rock mass transportation. The risks in study were identified while using combined types of transport at the open pit mining facilities [6]. Qualitative and quantitative risk analyses were carried out for their further effective management and monitoring. Information on the identification, classification, qualitative and qua...

A switch to combined automobile-conveyor transport is offered, i.e. cyclical and continuous method, at an early stage of the development of steeply falling deposits, based on usage of advantages of the safe intensive development of working zones along the steep open pit edges at a number of open pit mines on the territory of Kazakhstan. It is possible to shift from traditional approaches of cutting a new pit banks by advance of the cut trench with the minimum dimensions on the round-shaped open-pit fields. Decreas...
