Abstract: BThe effectiveness of the operation of mining enterprises engaged in open-pit mining of minerals largely depends on decisions made at the design stage. Increasing the life of quarries, switching to mining in hard-to-reach regions with a shortage of human resources, tightening the requirements of industrial and environmental safety of mining predetermine the need for designing mining enterprises with a rational combination of various methods of mining, finding new geotechnological solutions, optimizing mining parameters works, equipment and technologies, raising the organizational and technological level of production. For this, the norms of the technological design of mining enterprises with an open method of mining must be fixed at the legislative level, corresponding to modern mining technologies and knowledge of the technogenic change of the Earth's bowels in accordance with the requirements of their comprehensive development and conservation. On the initiative of IPKON RAS and the support of Rostekhnadzor, together with large Russian mining companies, a project was organized and a group of specialized specialists was formed to prepare Federal norms and rules in the field of industrial safety “Rules for ensuring the stability of sides and ledges of quarries, open pits and dumps”. Prepared FSFs are distinguished by taking into account the innovative orientation of geotechnologies, the possibility of applying deterministic and probabilistic methods, modern means of control and monitoring of the geomechanical state of the array, and methods for assessing and managing stability. The implementation of the project will contribute to increasing the economic efficiency and safety of open-pit mining of deposits, as well as ensuring long-term competitive advantages of Russian enterprises at the world level, which is very relevant in modern conditions.
