Application of resource-saving principles at breaking of strong fractured ores by blasthole ring charges

During underground mining of deposits of valuable non-metallic raw materials, nonferrous and precious metal ores, the problem of their overgrinding as a result of blasting is quite acute. Overgrinding of valuable non-metallic raw materials leads to an actual decrease in the yield of concentrates or final products, due to the rather stringent requirements of the enrichment technology for the conditional size of the piece and the structural safety of the useful component. Non-ferrous and precious metal ores represented by strong rocks are characterized by the effect of increased concentration of ore minerals in small classes of ore. Due to the process of segregation on ore drawing, small fractions in significant quantities accumulate on the lying side of the goaf and its unevenness. Such ore with a high content of useful component requires additional technological measures for its extraction or is simply lost. Consequently, the development of technological methods for managing the quality of products of a mining enterprise and methods for increasing the completeness of extracting mineral resources are an urgent scientific and technical task. To solve it, an analysis of theory and practice in the study area was carried out, which showed that the existing methods for additional extraction of fine ore fractions in mining systems with an open goaf are laborintensive and resource-intensive, not universal, ineffective and often not safe. It is rational to create conditions for reducing the yield of fine fractions already at the stage of ore blasting As a result, determining parameters principles for breaking technology of strong fractured ores are proposed. Developed guidelines and recommendations for blasthole ring charges. Dependences the technical and economic indicators of ore explosive blasting from its structural and technological parameters are obtained.

Keywords: underground mining, overgrinding, strong ores, fracturing, breaking technology, dispersal, arcuate zone, charge system.
