Abstract
Due to the unsatisfactory environmental situation in the areas of mining complexes, special attention should be paid to environmental safety when selecting equipment. The results of the calculation of the transportation complex on the example of Udachny open pit of ALROSA's diamond mining company are presented. A quantitative assessment of damage associated with equipment downtime is made. A total of five different options have been considered, four of which use different ways to reduce the harmful effects from the operation of diesel dump trucks. The most economical variant, which allows to reduce not only harmful impact, but also the cost of transportation of rock mass, is determined.
