Abstract
In article presents the results of research into the dynamics of the mining operations in the Saraji open pit coal mine, which has been in operation for more than 40 years on the east coast of Australia. The technological indicators of the open pit mine, the number of mining and transport machines in operation, the elements of coal mining systems, as well as the interaction with the environment have been identified based on satellite imaging data and the results of analytical calculations. A conclusion is made that the scale effect has been completely fulfilled in the studied open pit mine and it allows to keep the volume of coal production at the level of 60 million tons per year.
