Abstract
The article is devoted to the issues of improving the efficiency of open-cast mining of solid minerals. Surface miners are effective and promising mining equipment that brought a large number of innovative technological solutions to the mining industry. The flow sheet of mining an overburden bench of high altitude with boom surface miners and the improved spreader is presented. Application of technical and technological improvements will significantly increase the productivity of mining equipment, reduce the cost of doing stripping operations and improve the profitability of the mining industry in the development of deposits of solid minerals, semi-indurated rocks.
