Abstract

The article presents the applied research on formation of science-and-technology basis for commercial introduction of a technology that ensures cardinal reduction in loss in underground mining at unique Kyshtym quartz deposit. Based on the theoretical analysis of the minimum quartz loss criterion, the authors determine rational variants of combined mining and quartz breaking by planar charge system for in–situ experimentation.
