Mining industry is one of the leading industries in the world. Its role in the economy of Armenian is quite significant. There is no industry in the republic which does not experience a need for mineral raw materials. Moreover, the existence and development of a number of branches is directly related to the mining industry. The scientific and technological progress plans of the sectoral organizations, which have increased the volume of mining significantly in recent years, should increase the production productivity due to investments.
After privatization, the biggest mining company of Republic of Armenia, the Zangezur Copper and Molybdenum Combine CJSC (hereinafter referred to as "ZCMC" CJSC) has developed and is implementing a long-term development and further modernization program (2005-2020, approximately $ 220 million of the planned value) as a result of which an increase in ore extraction and recycling volumes, the improvement of the technical and economic indicators of the organization are expected with the increase of the ore extraction level, as well as application of high-yield equipment.
The project also provides the study of the possibility of extracting basic and accompanying metals from copper and molybdenum concentrates, ores and rocks, as well as the solution of social-economic and environmental issues.
The efficiency of indicators of the new and used drilling machines included in the preparation of ore and stripping mines within the framework of the mentioned innovation program is analyzed, as well as the time structure after the investment, the feasibility of changing the labour organization regime in case of further increase of the ore extraction volume based on comparative analysis is studied. The performd. calculations allow to evaluate the efficiency of the drilling equipment usage according to the time and capacity, as well as to prove the expediency of the proposed new regime.
