One of the key parameters of the mine, which affects the choice of the scheme for stripping and transporting ore, is its annual productive capacity. At the same time, the analysis of the experience of domestic mining enterprises using the underground mining methods allows us to say that the traditional and most common transportation methods are skip hoisting and road transport using underground dump trucks [1]. Along with traditional ones, there are progressive energy-efficient and poorly-staffed types of transpor...

In modern mining a tendency is observed to extend underground development of near open-pit reserves in thick ore deposits because of increase of open-pits ready to complete open mining operations or technical elimination. Researchers of Mining Institute KSC RAS have established that when developing the near open-pit reserves by mining systems of ore and country rock caving, the parameters of ore excavation and mining safety increase due to controlling ore drawing and constructing a thermal insulating layer. The ma...
