Experimental and Industrial Development Project

A project for the experimental and industrial development of a deposit is a set of documentation that contains technical and economic calculations and justification of the feasibility of applying the approved design solutions for mining with simultaneous study of minerals. Such a project is drawn up for deposits of the fourth group of complexity. Special permits for the development of such areas are granted for minerals of national importance. The advantage for a subsoil user is that simultaneously with geological exploration, it is possible to compensate for the costs of exploration through sales from mineral extraction. The volume of mineral extraction during the experimental and industrial development of a deposit is limited to 5% of the total reserves.
