ABSTRACT

The article provides findings for topical geomechanical and geodynamic problems of mining companies, the problems arising from deposit and underground space mining.

The prediction of geomechanical processes and the justification of method parameters of mining by open-pit, subsurface and combined methods in complicated mining and geological conditions of tectonically stressed mass and under confined aquifers were carried out.

Geomechanics of deposits development in the Arctic area is studied.

The methodology of geomechanically safe underground space mining is stated for metropolises.
