An inter- esling example of this occurred at the Cres~nore (Canada),ore mine where the cost of transporting 1 t of mineral was virtually halved by replacing diesel engine transport facilities by electrical dump trucks [2]. It is the special advan- tage of electrical engines that they do not pollute the atmosphere of the mine. The Mining Institute of the Academy of Sciences of the ~KazSSR has carried out laboratory research and field work (at the Dzhezkazgan ore mine) on power-supply systems for electrical self-propelled, free-riding vehicles. The best power supply system for transport facilities [3] used to carry mineral over considerable distances (more than 300-350 m) is to provide the vehicle with power off an overhead contact line (the most economic supply possible) when negoriating haulage roads. As far as on-face work and load-transfer point operations are concerned, the vehicle should have its own independent supply to make for greater maneuverability and aiso withdraw the overhead mains from the face area. Batteries will comprise the independent power supply system.
