This article deals with a comprehensive geophysical approach intended to ensure safety of mining operations at the Verkhnekamskoe field of potassium and magnesium salts. As an example, the article presents the results of additional detailed seismic and electrical studies performed on one of the mine fields of the Upper Kama potash-magnesium salt deposit (UKPMSD) within the site designed for mining operations. Based on the obtained results the structure in the form of a “dome” was identified. According to the data of the complex interpretation, the area of an indefinite lithology (most likely, associated with the replacement of salt deposits) was identified in the upstructure part.

Introduction. Heading and winning machine system operation has been considered in the conditions of the Upper Kama (Verkhnekamskoe) potassium and magnesium salt deposit. Excavation of producing formations with the thickness of more than 4 m is carried out in two moves. The lower layer is excavated by the second move, while the area of the stope back is usually less than the cross-sectional area of the machine’s executive body. In this case, the heading and winning machine does not have a full face. Typical calculation methods contain no information for determining the operating parameters of machine systems at potash mines when tunneling with stope back partial section. Research methodology. The methodological foundations of a machine system capacity determination in the conditions of the Upper Kama potassium and magnesium salt deposit are described. The calculation of the main parameters characterizing the operation of the machine system when tunneling with stope back partial section. Results. Based on the identified dependencies, it is possible to determine the rational type of machine system equipment, the rate of hauling the machine to the face, and rational delivery distances based on equipment type and geological conditions. Summary. The proposed method of a machine system’s operating parameters determination in potash mine when tunneling with stope back partial section can be adapted and used in potash mines with various mining and geological and mining conditions to determine the capacity of machine systems.

The Polkowice-Sieroszowice Mine the KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. uses the georadar method to recognize the geological structure of the Zechstein (Upper Permian) Oldest Halite rock salt deposits (Na1). The incentive to use the georadar was the occurrence of a gas risk in mining excavations. This method is ideal for locating anhydrite blocks, that are potential sites of hydrogen sulphide accumulation, and is helpful in determining the top and base of the salt deposits. In the tests, 100 MHz and 30 MHz antennas were used, which reached the ranges of 40 m and 60 m and resolutions of 0.25 m and 1.0 m, respectively. The profiling with use of a georadar was performed in research boreholes and along the floors of excavation drifts.

One of the topical issues is the study of the formation conditions, geological structure, chemical composition and methods of development of the "Duzdag" salt deposit, formed in the Babek region of the Nakhchivan depression on the territory of Azerbaijan, in order to meet the salt needs of the population. The field is divided into two sections: southern - Nakhchivan and Sust, located 4.5 km north-west of it. The physical and mechanical properties of both sections are close to each other. Losses are allowed during field development due to the fact that salt layers alternate with clay layers. The constantly growing demand for salt has predetermined the need to develop more advanced and progressive production methods based on the mechanization of technological processes, the use of new technologies and world experience. Depending on the formation of salt deposits, different methods of salt extraction are used in world practice. The main method of production of table salt in the world should be its extraction in the form of a solution and evaporation in the sun. The share of each of these methods is about 35%, and about 30% of the salt is extracted from an underground mine. The productive layer of the Nakhchivan rock salt deposit is 93-95% halite and is of high quality. The excess content of clay minerals in the field forces them to be used only in animal husbandry. Frosts drilled in the Nakhchivan rock salt deposit can be widely used in the treatment of liver diseases. The mountain has 130 million tons of natural salt reserves that are effective in treating respiratory ailments. Since the ice is horizontal, patients adapt to the underground part. To open new production facilities and treatment facilities in Duzdag, it is necessary to continue the installation of equipment that meets modern standards, the introduction of mines into a fully automated, controlled technological regime, equipped with a modern ventilation system. Keywords: Nakhchivan salt deposit, processing methods, salt beds.
