Get advice from the chief expert

According to the significance, labor intensity and nature of the execution, surveying work can be divided into two types - basic and current. The first includes basic large-scale work of a one-time or periodic nature: the creation or reconstruction of a reference network on the surface, connecting surveys, the construction or reconstruction of an underground reference network, photogrammetric surveys of a quarry, large-scale marking work, observations of displacements and deformations of the earth's surface, etc. current work, which takes up about 85% of the working time of a site surveyor, includes small works of a systematic nature: additional surveys, setting directions, measuring and recording production, drawing small graphs, etc.

Most of the work at the mining enterprise is carried out by employees of the mine surveying department. Only major major work can be carried out by a contractor or with the help of a specialized surveying bureau of the holding.

At a mining enterprise, the execution of mine surveying work is distributed among the performers mainly on a territorial basis. Each district mine surveyor is assigned certain workings. This organization of work allows the district surveyor to study the site well, to know the condition and location of points, to promptly service mining operations, taking into account the characteristics of each face. General mine systematic work is entrusted, as a rule, to a separate mine surveyor. Major work of a one-time nature is carried out under the guidance of the chief surveyor or his deputy with the involvement of the required number of department employees.

A significant place in the overall balance of the surveyor's time is occupied by current reporting. The specific type of reporting depends on the mining industry. In the general case, the forms submitted to higher organizations display: the results of mine surveying measurements of mine workings (face advance, face line, excavation area, production, etc.); length and condition of mine workings; information about the disposal and introduction of new faces, etc. In addition, graphic documentation (mining plans) is updated monthly. All employees of the department participate in the preparation of reports. Generalization of reporting is carried out by the chief surveyor or his deputy.

Field surveying works are distinguished by a variety of measurements and a large expenditure of time for preparatory and final operations, transitions, downtime. Their rational organization provides for the use of effective methods, techniques, tools and equipment in order to increase labor productivity and safety, as well as to ensure normal conditions and the required accuracy.

To increase the efficiency of field work, it is necessary to: plan work and carefully prepare for it; combine in one working day several types of small mine surveying work in one or closely spaced faces; apply progressive methods of work; to select the optimal quantitative composition of the brigade

Mine surveying is characterized by a large amount of cameral processing. At mining enterprises, calculations and preparation of primary documentation are carried out by district surveyors, and copying and reproduction of drawings are carried out by draftsmen and cartographers. It is possible to increase the efficiency of office work through the widespread introduction of modern computer technology, transparent materials for compiling graphic documents and small-scale mechanization in drawing work and duplicating documents.

A feature of the surveying service is also the work with numerous graphic and computational materials. Regardless of the degree of secrecy, mine surveying documentation (graphic, computational and field) is of great importance for the rational development of deposits and the safe conduct of mining operations. Loss of it in many cases is irreparable. It is subject to strict accounting and storage. The head of the enterprise is responsible for ensuring the proper storage of documentation.

During the conservation and liquidation of a mining enterprise, the main mine surveying documentation is replenished, systematized and, in accordance with the established procedure, transferred according to the act to a higher organization for further (indefinite) storage. Materials that are not subject to transfer for storage are destroyed according to the act by a commission with the participation of a surveyor of a higher organization.

Automated production control systems (APCS) are called upon to play a significant role in improving mine surveying services, which quickly control and manage many production processes of a mining enterprise (accounting for the working time of workers, monitoring the preparation of new sites, accounting for the operation of mechanisms, accounting for the provision of an enterprise with prepared reserves, etc. .). APCS includes: a) collection of current information about the work of the enterprise; b) analysis and processing of information on a computer; c) issuance of control commands to individual production areas, as well as the issuance of data on the current state of production to management for information and action. The mine surveying service prepares for the automated control system the initial information on the conduct of mine workings, on the advancement of the line of stopes, on the introduction and disposal of new faces (sites), on the state of workings, etc. This information is processed on a computer together with information coming from other departments, and participates in operational analysis and production management at a mining enterprise.

As part of a purely mine surveying profile, through the automated control system, networks are adjusted, the expected deformations of the earth's surface are calculated, and other tasks that require complex calculations are solved. To solve the problem, the surveyor prepares the initial information according to the established forms and submits it to the automated control system of the enterprise, where it is systematized and transferred to the computer center. The results of the solution are returned to the enterprise's automated control system through the same channel and are sent to the mine surveying department.

At present, computers are responsible not only for the processing of mine surveying data, but also for their storage.

TECHNICAL REGULATION OF SURVEYING WORKS

For the best organization of production and the achievement of high labor productivity, constant study and research of the production process is necessary. On the basis of systematically conducted research, technically justified production standards for the main and current mine surveying work are developed, which are necessary to establish planned targets, as well as to calculate the staff of performers and the payroll.

The basic concepts of technical regulation of labor are the norms of time and output.

The norm of time called the time required to manufacture a unit of high-quality products under certain production and technical conditions. Time limits can be expressed in minutes, hours, shifts, etc.

Production rate- this is the amount of high-quality products that the contractor (team) must produce per unit of time under certain production and technical conditions. The production rate in mine surveying practice, as a rule, is calculated per working day in natural units of measurement: horizontal and vertical surveys - 1 km; drawing up and drawing plans - 1 dm 2, etc.

By the method of technical regulation, the norm of time is established, and the norm of production is calculated according to the norm of time. The time limit can be represented as

t = (t o + t B)*(1 + 0.01 P otd), (1)

where t about- the time required to perform the main work per unit of output; t B- time to perform ancillary work per unit of output; P otd- standard time for rest as a percentage of operational time.

The calculation of the time of the main and auxiliary work per unit of production is based on the actual balance of the working day. If the norm of time per unit of production is known t, it is easy to calculate the rate of production N ex according to the formula

where T N- normal working hours; T P-Z - time spent on the implementation of preparatory and final operations; T T-P - time spent on technological breaks.

At present, there are no unified collections of standard output norms for mine surveying in the mining industry. In specialized organizations where piecework wages apply, departmental norms are applied. Therefore, when planning surveying work at a mining enterprise, it is recommended to use existing regulatory documents.

PLANNING SURVEYING WORKS

In the mining industry, as in other industries, long-term and current plans for the development of mining operations for the development of deposits are drawn up. In accordance with the indicated types of mining planning, prospective and current plans for mine surveying are drawn up, which should include:

1) types, volumes of surveying works and terms of their implementation;

2) the staff of the mine surveying department of the mining enterprise;

3) equipment and tools of the mine surveying department;

4) the cost of mine surveying services per ton of production.

Main tasks at the planning stage of mine surveying are the following:

Timely provision of mining enterprises with all types of surveying work for a given period of time (five years, a year, etc.);

Control over the completeness of mining of mineral deposits, the correct conduct of mining operations and taking into account the issuance of minerals to the surface;

Ensuring the rhythmic work of the mine surveying department, minimal loss of working time.

Starting materials for planning are:

1) long-term and annual plans for the development of mining operations for the enterprise;

2) obligatory technical instructions and guidelines for the production of surveying work;

3) the current norms of time and output for surveying work (if any).

Prospective planning of mine surveying work is carried out on a five-year basis, the current one - on years and quarters (months).

1) topo-geodesic and surveying works performed under contracts by specialized organizations (works on the creation and reconstruction of the basic network of the basin and surveying the earth's surface over large areas);

2) the main mine surveying work performed by the bureau of specialized mine surveying works (production of connecting surveys, production of observations of rock displacement and rock pressure, generalizing work on the geometrization of mineral deposits and checking the geometric elements of lifting complexes, stereophotogrammetric survey of quarries, sections);

3) the main mine surveying work performed by the service of the mining enterprise;

4) current surveying work.

In perspective plans the main attention is paid to the works of the first type, since they are carried out at significant intervals for a group of enterprises. Therefore, the surveying departments of enterprises for these types of work draw up and justify the plan-application, which is submitted to the chief surveyor of a higher organization. The latter summarizes the applications received from the enterprises and draws up a general plan for the execution of work for the trust (mining administration) or the plant and draws up an agreement with specialized organizations for their implementation.

Works of the second, third and fourth types are reflected in consolidated indicators indicating the types and volumes of work by year.

in annual plans the works of the second and third types are deciphered in detail (types and volumes of the main mine surveying works, deadlines, justification of the required accuracy of observations, the required staff of performers (separately engineers and workers) and a list of the required tools). When work is performed by the forces of special bureaus, these materials are transferred to the chief surveyor of the association (combine) to determine the number and composition of the bureau and plan its work.

Works of the fourth type in the annual plans are indicated in aggregated figures.

In quarterly (monthly) plans a specific list of works of the mine surveying department, deadlines and performers are reflected.

The preparation of the current plan begins with the work that must be performed at the time set for the enterprise. These include work related to the determination of the volumes of mining and excavation of mine workings (measurements), which are preceded by additional surveys of mine workings in underground mining methods and work to create a survey justification for open pit mining. The rest of the work (setting directions for workings, current horizontal and vertical surveys, etc.) is planned based on the needs of the enterprise and the capabilities of the mine surveyor. As mentioned above, in order to reduce the time for preparatory and final work per unit of production, when planning field work, one should strive to maximize the compaction of the working day, i.e., with small one-time volumes of work, plan not one, but several types of mine surveying work per working day.

Detailed calendar plans for the production of current mine surveying work for individual workings and types of work should be rationally drawn up for each mine surveying site when planning work for a month in tabular form.


Obtaining a mine surveying license for any enterprise carrying out work related to the mine surveying direction is, of course, strictly mandatory. The direction itself involves the study of the structure, shape and size of a mineral deposit using various field measurements. A mine surveying license, which can be obtained from Rostekhnadzor, is not only an official document confirming that the enterprise fully complies with all safety standards and requirements, but also has a staff of qualified employees. Since such a mining license implies that the work itself will be accompanied by constant risk, and any miscalculation will entail not only large material losses, but also human casualties, the requirements for leadership positions are very strict. Before obtaining a surveying license, management must ensure that all responsible employees fully meet the criteria, and that the senior officials themselves have the appropriate education and experience. Otherwise, a license for any mining operation will not be issued. If the requirements are met, then it will not be difficult to get a mine surveying visa.

Requirements for obtaining a surveying license

Obtaining a mine surveying license implies that the licensee has:

  • employees with higher professional education of the relevant profile and qualification confirmation issued no later than 3 years ago, as well as an experience of 3 or more years;
  • completed higher professional education and with at least 5 years of work experience in the field.

At the same time, it is important to remember that the surveying license of Rostekhnadzor assumes that employees will regularly (at least once every 3 years) improve their skills at the relevant courses. All employees must pass certification not only in the field of industrial production safety, but also undergo training and pass a test for subsoil protection.

What equipment is needed to obtain a mining license?

Any measuring equipment must pass a metrological check, since the very specifics of the industry imply the need for the most accurate calculations. Obtaining a mine surveying license is impossible if the licensee does not have any technical and technological documentation, as well as in the absence of the required equipment. In more detail, all requirements are described in the relevant regulation "On licensing the production of mine surveying", which can be found on the official website. It is important to note that the licensee is obliged to analyze and identify hazardous zones and territories, as well as notify other enterprises of upcoming mining operations. A separate license is also issued for the use of specialized mining equipment. It is necessary to obtain permission from Rostekhnadzor to use the equipment.

The license for mine surveying involves the submission of documents to the Central Directorate of Rostechnadzor. That is why you should carefully consider the list of required papers: the absence or incorrect submission of a certificate or document will lead to the return of the entire package. In particular, according to the law, along with the application of the established form (you can download the template on the official website), the following papers must be submitted:

  • description directly. This will help eliminate the possibility of the employee losing the document. The description must be in two copies.
  • a power of attorney is needed if the execution is carried out by a third party representing the interests of the applicant.
  • statement. The template can be downloaded from the website.
  • requisites. Here you should indicate the name of the body that approved the document, the date of signing, as well as the number of documents on the organization of the PC for compliance with industrial safety requirements during mining operations.
  • proof of education. It is necessary to submit certified copies of documents confirming the qualifications and experience of employees and managers.
  • confirmation of the availability of equipment. We need copies of documents for all equipment used.

In addition to all of the above, you will need to submit a document confirming the payment of the state duty. To date, a license for the production of mine surveying works costs 7,500 rubles, but it is strongly recommended to follow the current information on the official website. In case of an error, there you can download letter templates for the return of funds by the state. The mine surveying license, which was previously valid for five years, has now changed its terms. At the moment, the mine surveying license is perpetual. This means that previously issued licenses with an expiration date will need to be obtained again. Reissuing a mine surveying license is absolutely similar to obtaining it. It should be noted that it is possible to create a duplicate of the lost license, but you will have to pay the fee established by law for this.

Until a license is obtained, mining operations cannot be carried out. This will be considered a violation of the law and stopped. The licensee may lose the license if the audit revealed gross violations at the enterprise. In this case, all production will be stopped until the status that satisfies all the criteria of the object is re-confirmed. In order not to risk losing your license, it is better to contact the specialists of the Emergency Assistance Center in advance, who will provide qualified support at the stage of preparing for the test. Moreover, for clients who have obtained a license with our help, a specialist is accompanied during scheduled inspections. Thus, the successful completion of the test and confirmation of compliance with the issued license is guaranteed.
