The article features the problem of residential development that migrant workers had to face in the mining districts of the Kuznetsk Basin during the first five-year plan. The author identified the causes of the housing crisis in the early 1930s that forced many independent miners to abandon mining enterprises. The paper describes the agenda taken by the central government authorities of Donbass and Kuzbass in order to provide miners with housing. It focuses on the types of housing in the Kuznetsk Coal Basin according to the method of production and building patterns, including communal houses. Prefabricated standard wooden constructions made it possible to build a lot of houses in a relatively short period of time. The main mistakes included a poor material base, limited workforce, and a shortage of building materials. As a result, the initial construction program was never fulfilled. The research focused on the residential development of the coal mining town of Prokopyevsk, its types of dwellings, the number of citizens involved in mining provided with state-owned housing, and the average housing space per capita. Thanks to the housing commissioned, the housing stock was significantly increased in the coal industry in general, and, more particularly, in the Kuzbassugol coal mining trust. The extensive residential development was not aimed at improving the living conditions of miners and their families but at binding migrants to their mines in order to meet the coal-mining program of the first five-year plans.

Analysis of the grade composition of the mineral resource base of the distributed and undistributed subsoil Fund as of 01.01.2018 showed a decrease in reserves of coal intended for open pit mining. In the future, the production of a number of technological grades of coal (gas fat (GZh), fat (Zh), coking fat (KZh), coking (K), coking caking low-metamorphized (KCN), coking caking (KC), lean caking (OC), low caking (CC) is possible only by underground method. The expansion of the raw material base of the Kuzbass coal industry and the support of coal production volumes, primarily by the technological of grades coking fat (KZh), coking (K), coking caking (KC), lean caking (OC), low caking (CC) involves exploration, the use of unconventional production technologies and tax preferences for coal mining enterprise

The article considers one actual method for development coal deposits in the Kuzbass by open-underground mining. The scientific and practical advantages of the proposed method due to the use of common infrastructure of coal mine and a modular mine site (subsequently transformed into a mining and technological structure operating according to the mine – longwall scheme) are presented. Currently, a development strategy for Kuzbass until 2035 has been developed. As part of the strategy, a draft program for subsoil use is being formed in the coal industry department. The program should take into account all the positive and negative aspects associated with coal mining in cities and municipal areas and also their prospects. In the Kuznetsk coal basin, 42 mines and 52 opencast mines are mining, of which 12 enterprises use partially unified infrastructure. According to the results of open-underground mining work conducted by the laboratory of the Institute of Coal and Coal Chemistry of the Siberian Branch of the Russian Academy of Sciences (Institute of Coal SB RAS), the list of sites includes favorable mining and geological conditions with incidence angles of up to 18 degrees. As open-pit coal production increases, many sites encounter such a parameter as maximum allowable (boundary) strip ratio. At the stage of preparing the feasibility study for the development of a coal deposit, this coefficient is calculated first of all, since duration of enterprise’s work and its economic component depend on it. In order to increase parameters, it is necessary to carry out transition from open works to underground. As a result, coal mine will not work at a loss, providing production with an economically disadvantageous strip ratio.

SummaryThis article challenges the militant and industrial unionist version of British coal mining trade union history, surrounding the Miners' Federation of Great Britain and the National Union of Mineworkers, by considering, for the first time, the case of the colliery deputies' trade union. Their national Federation was formed in 1910, and aimed to represent the three branches of coal mining supervisory management: the deputy (or fireman, or examiner), overman and shotfirer. First, the article discusses the treatment of moderate and craft traditions in British coal mining historiography. Second, it shows how the position of deputy was defined by changes in the underground labour process and the legal regulation of the industry. Third, it traces the history of deputies' union organization up until nationalization in 1947, and the formation of the National Association of Colliery Overmen, Deputies and Shotfirers (NACODS). The article concludes that the deputies represent a mainstream tradition of craft/professional identity and industrial moderation, in both the coal industry and the wider labour movement.

The article presents an analysis of the problem of human resource retention in the coal-mining region. It is emphasized that along with the factors of economic development it is advisable to take into account the socio-cultural needs and preferences of employees to ensure the preservation of human resources and the development of human capital on this basis. The article substantiates the need to rely on the actual socio-cultural needs of the subjects of professional activity when building activities for the development of the socio-cultural space of the coal-mining region. The article analyzes the implementation of strategic measures for the creation of the Siberian Cluster of Arts from the point of view of the development of the socio-cultural space of the region for the retention of human resources. The empirical part of the article is presented by the results of the study of socio-cultural needs, leisure preferences and the assessment of the attractiveness of the factors of living in Kuzbass by employees of the coal industry enterprises of the region. The sample population included 93 respondents living in the following cities: Kemerovo, Berezovskiy, Kiselevsk, Novokuznetsk, Polysaevo, and Prokopyevsk. The main method of collecting information was a survey conducted through GoogleForms. The analysis uses methods of mathematical statistics, quantitative and qualitative analysis of the results, and analysis of the significance of socio-cultural needs for the respondents.

The paper examines the trends and techniques now being adopted by the Australian coal mining industry to improve efficiency and competitiveness in the face of an increasingly difficult international and domestic coal market. Quality Assurance certification to internationally accepted standards has been gained by some operators whilst many more companies are implementing varied forms of Total Quality Control concepts. These concepts now so well established in traditional manufacturing industries, have not previously been associated with the vagaries of the coal industry but are now being pursued by many in an effort to gain or retain a competitive edge. The paper also explains some of the actual processes being undertaken by the mining companies and outlines some of the systems being developed and utilised to undertake preliminary analysis and evaluation of existing and proposed management systems prior to implementing TQC systems.
