Environmental improving the utilization of dump trucks in the composition of supply truck train at open-pit mining

The possibility of using the dump trucks in the composition of supply truck train at open-pit mining has analysed with regard to increasing the effectiveness and ecological properties of road transport in quarries. It was found that operation of dump trucks in the composition of supply truck train can improve the effectiveness of road transport, significantly reduce the length of the route, decrease the volume capital mining operations and its cost, minimize general costs for transport purchasing and its operation, as well as to increase the depth of pit mining and to renounce the underground extraction of bottom level of deposit.
