Abstract

Mining-geological and mining conditions of the
“Kupol”: deposit development in the zone of permafrost rocks are considered in the article. Overall
estimation of the workings’ state in the mine is performed. In terms of analytical solutions dimensions
and configuration of the zones of limiting state of
rocks are determined. Recommendations on both
monitoring the state and workings supporting in the
“Kupol” mine and in similar conditions of other
mines are proposed.
