FIELD: mining industry, particularly open-cast mining, particularly to produce natural stone blocks from sheet deposits by open-cast mining. ^ SUBSTANCE: method involves forming benches in each separate deposit so that production deposit is arranged at bench bottom; excavating mineral blocks by moving hydraulic excavator bucket teeth under productive deposit bottom and removing the blocks having natural configuration due to applying hydraulic action of excavator boom, handle and bucket to block with the use of natural deposit fracture porosity, which defines configuration and volume of produced blocks. ^ EFFECT: increased output, possibility to produce blocks from thin sheet deposits along with maintaining natural block volumes. ^ 1 ex |
