THE SYSTEM OF INDICATORS DETERMINING THE LEVEL OF INNOVATIVE TECHNOLOGICAL DEVELOPMENT OF THE MINING INDUSTRY ENTERPRISES
It is suggested to identify the type of innovative technological development of a company based on the analysis of thirty basic scenarios where annual variation in overall volume of expenditures is related with the variation in expenditures per individual elements (material inputs, amortization charges, wages and insurance premiums and miscellaneous costs). All of the scenarios are divided into four groups. The first group scenarios illustrate introduction of new technologies in a company. The second group scenarios show improvement of the current production technology. The third group scenarios demonstrate technical upgrading of a company, and the fourth group scenarios display zero technological and mechanical innovation.

For the first two types of innovative development, this index is the ratio between the rate of decline in material inputs and the rate of variation in the overall volume of expenditures; for the third group — the ratio between the growth rate of amortization charges and the variation rate of the overall volume of expenditures. The level of innovative technological activity specifies the rate of growth of added value in the overturn.

The function describes the interrelation between complex variable profit and costs of production and a complex labor and capital factor. Elasticity coefficients of complex-valued production function are investigated. Practical application of the model for forecasting the efficiency of industrial production is considered on the example of " Erdenet Enterprise" (Mongolia). Construction of Kobb-Douglas production function for the analysis of activity of this enterprise was impossible. However the analysis of economic indicators of the enterprise by means of complex-valued production function yielded positive results. Calculation of elasticity coefficients for the function modeling activity of the enterprise, and also their interpretation are given in the article. The conclusion is made about the need of considering such problems as work organization by the company’s management for the purpose of increasing the production efficiency of the enterprise.
Key words: complex-valued economy, production function, forecasting, elasticity coefficient, modeling of economy.

THE STUDY OF THE CEMENTATION PROCESS OF PURIFICATION IN THE PRODUCTION OF ZINC BY THE METHOD OF MATHEMATICAL MODELING
A mathematical model of the process cement cleaning solutions in the production of zinc has been developed. It is based on the equations of the material balance of expenditure technological media and concentrations of individual components. The model allows determining the quantity of the products under consideration of the production of redistribution on the basis of information on the number of applicants for processing of material flows and their chemical compositions, as well as to assess its current and predict future states.
Key words: the cementation process of cleaning, method of mathematical modeling, the equations of material balance.

NONLINEAR MATHEMATICAL MODEL GEOMECHANICAL STATE OF COAL ROCK MASS
The article presents the results of a study of the stress-strain state of the rock mass, derived from a non-linear mathematical model. Assessed the adequacy of the model by comparing simulation results with the data of field experiment.
Key words: mathematical model, rock massif, nonlinear deformation of rocks, theory of plasticity, numerical simulation, computer experiment, field measurements.

ANALYSIS OF MINEABILITY OF COMPLEX-SHAPED SECTIONS IN COAL MINES
In article the description of procedure of a substantiation of extraction of stocks of coal from sites of a difficult configuration for the purpose of increase of completeness of extraction of stocks is resulted. Analysis of abandoned mine sections and review of sophisticated technologies justifies suitability of the abandoned sections for mining. The decision should be based on the knowledge on the amount and quality of coal contained in the section, and the section geometry.
Key words: industrial stocks, technology, coal целики, factor of extraction of stocks.

IMPROVING OFFICIENCY HYDROTRANSPORT POLYDISRERSE MIXTURES
In the general problem of moving freight flows at various distances acquired considerable importance pipeline transportation. Not only traditional liquid and gaseous different products, but also a variety of solid bulk materials or suspension. Scope hydrotransport solid or slurry materials is extensive and includes many areas of industry, including mining, coal, chemical, power and construction industries where pipelines move raw materials, finished products and production wastes. To reduce the energy consumption of hydro systems, high specific energy capacity due process and progressive line of development is reduction of resistance to movement of the slurry flow and increase the wear resistance of the pipeline. One solution to this problem is the use of pipes in polymeric coatings. For the application of such pipes in hydrotransport-enriched tails tion is necessary to develop a methodology for calculating head loss along the length of the pipes with an inner polymer coating and the methodology for calculating the lifetime of such tubes.
Key words: hydrotransport, energy consumption, energy intensity, slurry resistance, wear resistance, the polymer coating.
