Abstract

Regions of Russian European part have a significant reserves of mineral raw materials, which are available for the long continued processing by open-cast mining. An open-cast mining of three largest iron ore deposits of a Northwestern District – Kovdor, Olenegorsk and Kostomuksha — will be held within the 20–40 years, whereupon it will be changed by the underground mining. The same situation would soon be in “Plato Rasmuchorr” apatite deposit. Other open cast mining objects of this region are supplied with resourses for longer term: 50 years for diamonds; 140 years for bauxites; 400 years for amber. Deposit with a power generating coal by more than 3 billion tones is accessible for wide-ranging development by opencast mining. This deposit is situated on the North of a Pechora coal basin.
Central District will be a center of open-cast mining for a long time (out of bounds of the XXI-st century). It will be used by all three largest enterprises of Russian Ferrous metallurgy — Lebedinsky, Mikhailovsky and Stoilensky.
The development potential of open cast mining in Russian European part has not been exhausted. Open cast mining will be predominant for a long time for iron ores extraction in the Center of Russia and all over – for extraction of the construction rocks.
