The total complexity of the discipline is 5 credits (180 hours)

The purpose of discipline. Formation of theoretical knowledge and practical skills to determine the stability of slopes dumps, sides and mining in quarries and their operation under steady state of natural and man-made mining masses that are involved in the process of extraction of minerals.

The problem of discipline.

- General concepts of sustainability and appropriate management with sustainable benches, boards and dumps;

- Design of new dumps, sides and mining in quarries and their operation under steady state of natural and man-made mining masses;

- Sustainability of the limit equilibrium slope of dumps and pit;

- Preservation of objects, structures and mechanisms, in the zone of possible collapse of slopes through the use of technology and engineering methods directional change of mining massif;

- To form the students research skills, experience with textbooks, teaching materials, scientific literature, periodicals, and other sources of information;

- Encourage students to the systematic study of the self.
