Popis: Purpose. The present paper aims to develop methodological principles for the selection of effective parameters of resource-saving technologies while developing water-bearing titanium-zirconium deposits basing on the complex of analytical studies. Methods. The paper applies a complex of research methods: analytical – to analyze and generalize the main differences of the development technology for water-bearing placer deposits and problem statement; technical-economic analysis for identifying the effect of a resource-saving technology on the indices of land use of the open-pit mining and involvement of associate raw materials in the economic activity; forecasting – to determine the influence on complex development of a titanium-zirconium deposit on the operating parameters of the regional nonmetallic raw material open pits. Findings. Effective trends in using the associate raw materials located in the enclosing and overburden rocks of a titanium-zirconium deposit are identified. Key differences between the technologies of associate raw material mining from the overburden rocks and their recovery from the enclosing rocks while mineral mining are defined. Predictive influence of a resource-saving technology of the development of titanium-zirconium deposits on the extraction of building materials from the regional nonmetallic open pits is specified. Volumes of possible associate raw material mining while developing the Motronivskyi GZK open pit during its operation are determined. Originality. New dependences of a land capacity coefficient while mining nonmetallic raw material in the region, prime cost of ore development as well as number of open pits for sand and clay production in the region on the volumes of involved associate raw material of the titanium-zirconium open pits are identified. Practical implications. A structural-logical scheme is elaborated for the selection of a resource-saving technology while operating open pits for the development of titanium-zirconium deposits.
