Abstract: Ensuring the national security of the state is the main path of its development. One of the priority areas is the efficient extraction of natural resources in combination with rational environmental management within the framework of climateneutral economic activities based on the best available technologies. The National Security Strategy of the Russian Federation specifies such ways to achieve the desired results in this area as sustainable development of the mineral resource base, ecological regeneration of territories, prevention of aquatic ecosystems pollution, their restoration, as well as replacement of imported equipment with mining and technological machines of Russian manufacturers, development of scientific infrastructure, etc. One of the strategically important resources is peat (Russia has 35% of the world's peat reserves), however, its significant reserves are heavily waterlogged and the drainage of peat deposits negatively affects the state of the environment. This requires the development of new technologies and equipment for their implementation and the development of an expanded classification of peat extraction complexes. The classification presented by the authors structures the existing complexes. It serves as a guideline regarding the relevance of developing new peat mining complexes in relation to the conditions for the implementation of their geotechnology, as well as regarding the type of movement of complexes and the type of product they produce.
Keywords: peat, peat extraction, extraction classification, extraction complexes, peat industry, geotechnology, peat raw materials, the best available technologies
