I. WORKING CONDITIONS

The mine works 365 days a year with 3 work shifts for 24hours.

Mine activities are done on steps of 15m height when conducting blasting activities.

The rocks are characterized by a medium hardness, varying from 100 to 1000 kg/cm2 . There are local areas with a higher hardness, but their volumes are insignificant. The rocks are highly abrasive

The drill holes are drilled with drills with average bit diameter of ø 251. The drilling net is from 8 х 8 meters to 10.5 х 10.5 meters. The depth of the drill holes reaches 17 meters.

Due to the rock diversity in different areas of the mine, we use blasting material of different power. Mine geological conditions allow, in some areas, the use of drill holes with smaller diameter /220 – 230 mm/ with keeping the drill net unchanged.

Rocks

The mining field is characterized by paleozoic granites, effusive vulcanites form the late Cretaceous period – andesine, volcanic breccias, tuffs and sub-volcanic rocks - diorite, quartz – diorite, granodiorite and porphyry.

The rocks are strongly modified hydrothermally and in all parts into typical

metasomatites:

sericite quartzites;

alunite – diasporе quartzites;

argillites;

propyllites

Chemical content of the ores:

Cu -

Mo - 0,0007 - 0,0012%

SiO2 - 69,18 - 73,24%

Al2O3 - 12,16 - 14,04%

Fe2O3- 3,64 - 4,90%

Mineral composition:

Primary minerals, >10% - quartz, sericite, kaolinite;

Secondary minerals, 5-10% - chlorite, epidote, plagioclase, amphibole, biotite;

Metasomatites, >5% -diaspore, alunite, andalusite, montmorillonite, zeolite;

Ore minerals with industrial significance – chalcocite, chalcopyrite, covelite, bornite, pyrite;
