The article presents an analysis of placer gold mining conditions characterized by aggravation of mining and geological conditions - thickening of peat, complex structure of a number of placers with multilayer distribution of gold, lack of areas for placement of external dumps in places with steep valley slopes, defeat of almost all placers by waste materials of the past years, low availability of explored reserves for enterprises. The way to increase the volume of placer gold production is to improve the efficiency of re-extraction of fine and fine gold. The need to replace outdated equipment with technological complexes using stripping machines, centrifugal concentrators, etc. is given below.
