Abstract.

The paper presents a procedure for creating technogeneous deposits on the base of tailing ponds in the mining and processing enterprises in order to increase resource potential of the country, and to provide rational usage of natural resources through involving of the technogeneous deposits, formed in such a way, into the field development. A list of researches is given which should be conducted before making decision on such deposit creation and which includes analysis of granulometric, chemical and mineralogical compositions and determination of certain physical  and mechanical properties of the material to be stored. On the basis of previous industrial researches, parameters effecting on formation of technogeneous deposits are substantiated. Models simulating creation of technogeneous deposits at the stages of the tailing ponds designing and operation at the processing enterprises are presented.

Keywords:

natural and technogeneous processes; deposit; valuable components; tailing ponds; method; model.
