Mining operations are currently being carried out according to the project Mining and geological conditions for the mining of the Enaknevsk group of plants and the schedule for mining reserves at the mountains. 670 and 790 m by the Krasny Oktyabr mine of the Ordzhonnkndzeugol combine, developed by Dneprogiproshakht, agreed with VNIMI and approved by the Ministry of Coal Industry of the Ukrainian SSR. Laying works are carried out in accordance with the recommendations of the Institute of Mining. A. A. Skochinsky. The coefficient of lowering the roof and compaction of the fill is 0.25-0.35. DonpromstroyNII-project in 1970-1973 recommendations and working projects were developed for the restoration and protection of damaged buildings and structures of the by-product coke plant. Design and estimate documentation for the repair of cement plant facilities is developed by the Yuzhgiprotsment design institute. The factories are undergoing ongoing repair work. Observation stations have been set up to monitor the deformations of the earth’s surface and structures on the territories of the factories. Observations have been carried out by VNIMI at the cement plant since 1957, at the coke-chemical and metallurgical plants — since 1965. Since 1973, a group specially created at the Krasny Oktyabr mine has been participating in them..
By-product coke plant. The territory of the plant has been partially mined since 1949. The site of the plant is located in the zone of extension of the displacement trough from the side of the seams fall. This arrangement is the most unfavorable for structures. In this zone, in addition to the accumulation of horizontal deformations of the plant of the earth’s surface from the excavation of a suite of steeply dipping strata on the earth’s surface, cracks with ledges appear in the direction of the strike of the strata.
The territory of the plant covers an area of about 50 hectares. The plant consists of two sections of by-product coke production. Site No. 1 includes coal preparation with a coal plant, a coke plant with four coke oven batteries and a chemical plant. Site No. 2 includes a coke plant with two coke oven batteries and a chemical plant. The plant includes shop No. 1, coke shop No. 1, a shop for capturing chemical products from section No. 1, coal-coke shop No. 2, a shop for capturing chemical products from section No. 2, a sulfo coal shop; as well as steam boilers, electrical facilities, instrumentation facilities, plumbing facilities, auxiliary and ancillary facilities, transport facilities.
