2003. Pereyaslovski open cast mine, Krasnoyarsk Region
Project for the expansion of the Pereyaslovski open cast mine in the Krasnoyarsk Territory was developed. Planned capacity — up to 6 million tons of coal per year
2001. Redesign of railway transportation layout for the Russia’s largest open cast mine Borodinski
First time in mining industry a rail transport redesign project was implemented with the construction of a tunnel junction between stripping and coal operations. As a result the distance of haulage of overburden rocks to the waste dumps was reduced by 4 km.
2000. Construction of facilities for open cast mines in the Far East
In addition to the construction of a number of facilities, a transport-free exploitation system was introduced in the Zapadny («Western») section of the Luchegorski-1 open cast mine. An explosive materials depot was also designed.
1992. Baganur open cast mine in Mongolia
An open cast mine Baganur was built in Mongolia to the design of Giproshakht (6 mt of coal per year).
1990. Feasibility study of the Tavantolgoy Coal Field, Mongolia
The project was complicated by the fact that the construction had to be carried out in an undeveloped area of Mongolia. 25 design and research institutes were invited to carry out the feasibility study. As a result, the project of the Tavantolgoy Coal Field covered:
— An open cast mine with production of 20 mt of coal per year,
— A washing plant,
— Infrastructure (electric power supply, water supply, transportation, etc.)
Having examined an option of introducting a 2560 MW thermal power plant Giproshakht proposed to construct a town of Tavantolgoy (with a population of 50,000 people).
Financing of the project is currently discussed.
1975-1985. Open cast mines in Vietnam
The following open cast mines were built to the projects of Giproshakht:
Kaoshon. Production — 3 mt of coal per year,
Nuybeo. Production — 1.2 mt of coal per year,
Kokshau, Deonai and Hatu open cast mines were redesigned. Production — 1.5 mt of coal per year.
