Mining Innovation

The contemporary exploitation of natural raw materials requires the execution of many interrelated exploration, access, preparatory, and exploitation excavations. Presently, at each stage of mining, modern computer-aided design programs are used to quickly estimate the deposit exploitation factor as well as the safety of the performed excavations. Mining is closely related to natural hazards; therefore, new solutions aimed at more effective mining methods and intelligent construction materials for excavation supports and their monitoring are being sought. Managing the project along with the execution of the work schedule is necessary to complete the excavations on time. Both mechanical driving and the use of explosives require the determination of the strength, deformation, and structural parameters of the rock mass to effectively and quickly ensure excavation. To best reflect the mining conditions, model tests are often performed to understand the processes occurring in industrial conditions. Laboratory and numerical tests, case studies of mining methods, cooperation of support with the rock mass, and the liquidation method of the post-mining space are the basis for the current and future state of mining areas.
