Abstract

In the course of working off of mineral deposits, which is carried out basically by open way, huge quantities of technogenic waste is accumulated: overburden rocks, discarded ores and tails of ores enrichment. The given waste includes two interconnected components: mineral-raw and ecological. From geological industrial positions they are potential secondary mineral resources. From ecological position they are sources of environment pollution. In RA has been collected and large quantity of mining waste continues to be accumulated, the wrong policy to which can lead to rather difficult situations.
