Summary
In subsurface mining, The subject analyses operational situations which often appear with opening, preparation and exploitation of minerals deposits. The analysing of this problems is focused to the special processes of alternative solutions under safety requirements, occupational safety and restricting of labour risks. Reached results are used for economic optimization of mining technology, mining equipment and accompanying processes as removing the impacts of environmental risks.
In surface mining, the subject will analyses operational situations concern surface mining, transport, overburden removing, surface mining of raw materials in special
processes focused to alternative solutions under safety requirements, occupational safety and restricting of labour risks. The subject deals with accompanying processes as removing the impacts of surface mining upon the landscape environment.

Learning Outcomes of the Course Unit
The student will learn how to classify the basic types of organizational structures in the subject Analyses of Operational Situations in Mines and how to identify their strengths and weaknesses. The aim is to define and reproduce facts, to interpret acquired pieces of information in new situations and to compare them.
