| description | The analysis of Synchro-Mining alternatives, performed by the paper, has shown the multidimensionality being typical for the ideology and even controversy stipulating complexity of its understanding both by practices and by qualified scientists.
It has been substantiated that it is expedient to base the Synchro-Mining phenomenon on Mining interpretation by Merriam-Webster Dictionary version relying upon the existence primacy of a mining enterprise (i.e. a mine, quarry, open pit, well etc.): Mining exists irrespective of the mineral extraction until the enterprise is liquidated physically.
Thus, Synchro-Mining is diversification of the key activity of a mining enterprise performed in parallel with Mining whether it is coal or ore preparation, generation of electric energy and thermal energy, early Post-Mining measures, commercial extraction of methane, deep treatment of mine water, progress of circular economy etc. not only in the form of vertical integration of various businesses (i.e. hierarchical production method) but also in the form of heterarchies (i.e. network capitalism) or in the form of industrial parks.
Виконаний у роботі з використанням методу кейсів аналіз варіантів побудови Synchro-Mining показав властиву самій ідеології багатоаспектність, а то й суперечливість, що обумовлює складність її сприйняття не тільки практиками, а й навіть підготовленими вченими.
Обґрунтовано, що в основу феномена Synchro-Mining раціонально покласти тлумачення Mining (Гірництва) у версії словника Merriam-Webster, заснованого на приматі існування гірничодобувного підприємства (шахти, рудника, кар'єру, свердловини тощо): Mining існує незалежно від видобутку корисних копалин до тих пір, поки фізично не ліквідовано саме підприємство.
Таким чином, Synchro-Mining – це диверсифікація основної діяльності гірничодобувного підприємства, яка проводиться синхронно з Mining, будь-то в напрямку збагачення вугілля або руди, виробництва й акумуляції електричної та теплової енергії, заздалегідь проведених заходів Post-Mining, комерційного видобутку метану, глибокого очищення шахтних вод, розвитку циркулярної економіки та ін., як у формі вертикальної інтеграції різнопрофільних бізнесів (ієрархічний спосіб виробництва), так і у вигляді гетерархій (мережевого капіталізму), чи індустріальних парків.
Выполненный в работе с использованием метода кейсов анализ вариантов построения Synchro-Mining показал свойственную самой идеологии многоаспектность, а то и противоречивость, что обусловливает сложность ее восприятия не только практиками, но даже подготовленными учеными.
Обосновано, что в основу феномена Synchro-Mining рационально положить толкование Mining (Горное дело) в версии словаря Merriam-Webster, основанного на примате существования горнодобывающего предприятия (шахты, рудника, карьера, скважины и т.д.): Mining существует независимо от добычи полезных ископаемых до тех пор, пока физически не ликвидировано само предприятие.
Таким образом, Synchro-Mining – это диверсификация основной деятельности горнодобывающего предприятия, которая проводится синхронно с Mining, будь то в направлении обогащения угля или руды, производства и аккумуляции электрической и тепловой энергии, заранее проведенных мероприятий Post-Mining, коммерческой добычи метана, глубокой очистки шахтных вод, развития циркулярной экономики и др., как в форме вертикальной интеграции разнопрофильных бизнесов (иерархический способ производства), так и в виде гетерархий (сетевого капитализма), или индустриальных парков.

SYNCHRO-MINING: THE NEW SIGHT
Mining is the act, process, or industry of extracting coal, ores, etc., from the earth
Collins English DictionaryMining: the process or business of working mines
The dictionary by Merriam-WebsterMining is the activity intended to extract minerals from Earth’s interior…
Mining Law of Ukraine
Mining interpreted by Collins English Dictionary
as well as by Mining Law of Ukraine, is extraction of
minerals, inclusive of coal, from Earth’s interior.
In 2018, amounts of the world coal mining ex-
ceeded 8 billion tons [1]. More than 60 countries are en-
gaged in the industrial process; 10 of them mine almost
9/10 of the volume.
Despite the fact that production capacity of any of
the 50 national economies, being great in terms of coal
mining, is not more than 100 mln tons a year, namely
Mining is the key means to satisfy solid fuel and furnace
feed demand for coking since coal product stream
through international trading floors is not above 15-17%
of total production [2].
Coal import is a refuge of predominantly the coun-
tries which scaled back their national coal mining. The
above concerns especially thermal coal grades.
Japan and such European states as France, Bel-
gium, the Netherlands, and Luxemburg, having eternal
mining traditions, have done it relying upon economic
reasons. The Great Britain also joined them as well as
Germany. Kellingley, the last Britain mine, was closed
in 2015. Prosper-Haniel, the last German mine, was
closed in 2018. Next in turn is the last Spanish mine was
closed in 2019. The same was expected for Ukrainian
coal industry: the USSR authorities planned rapid and
mass liquidation of Donbas mine stock [3]. In the 1980s,
social and political difficulties prevented from doing in
such a way as well as dissipation of the Soviet Union.
Processes of active restructuration of mining indus-
tries in many countries called into existence Post-Min-
ing idea (i.e. physical closure of an enterprise with “cor-
rection” of ecological and social effects of its activities),
and a great number of scientific papers, concerning the
International and Regional Economics

issue. Thus, according to Google Scholar data, a paper
by a group of Czech authors, concerning the problems
of ground and biological restoration of territories after
mining and processing were ceased [4], was referenced
262 times starting from the year of 2018; since 2012, a
paper by another group of Check scientists [5] has been
referenced 95 times in the papers of their followers;
since 2014, a paper by such American authors as
J. Skousen, and C. E. Zipper [6] has been referenced
35 times etc. The diversified list also involves a paper
concerning lung cancer morbidity within Appalachian
coal field regions engaged in a Post-Mining stage [7].
Geography of those, processing the topic, comprises
Europe, America (as it has already been mentioned),
China [8], and Southern Africa [9].
The necessity to support coal mining under the
complex Ukrainian mining and geological, and eco-
nomic conditions motivated scientists and researchers of
the National Mining University (National Technical
University now) to develop original ideology for solving
economic, ecological, and social problems of depressive
mining regions entitled as Synchro-Mining [10, 11].
Started in 2010, the research has resulted by 2012
in the concept of strategic development of industrial re-
gions and in the sustainable functioning of mining en-
terprises on the basis of their synchronous (along with
mining diversification projects) implementation of fol-
lowing innovative techniques: chemical processing of
coal; deep purification of mine water; methane extrac-
tion; underground gasification of non-commercial coal
reserves, occurred in thin seams; processing of mine
dumps; alternative power industry etc.
Synchro-Mining is notable for aiming to imple-
ment completely the key measures, involved tradition-
ally in Post-Mining, at the active stage of a mine func-
tioning rather than post factum (after the enterprise was
closed temporary or closed down).
It looks like the idea was in the air: almost synchro-
nously, experts, known in coal industry, published pa-
pers in the manner of Synchro-Mining as for the 3-D
mine-based industrial parks [12, 13].
It also should be noticed that despite the fact that
the Synchro-Mining concept is almost close ideologi-
cally to such Policy European Documents as Program
Targets of European Network of Mining Regions, Stra-
tegy of Development of Mining European Industry,
Concept to Form European Technological Platforms,
Strategy to Use Natural Resources on the Basis of Sus-
tainable Progress of European Commission, its expan-
sion turned out to be less active as it has been seen and
worth.
Since the moment of the declaration paper publica-
tion [10], hardly more than two dozen references by the
national researches were recorded. As for the foreign
authors (if one Russian issue is ignored [14]), scientific
sources concerning Synchro-Mining have not been
almost unnoted although the texts in English are
available within the network [15, 16].
The above mentioned may be explained by poor
scientific understanding of Synchro-Mining idea which
prevents from consolidation of the national scientists
and researchers engaged in the field of mining industry.
As to the business structures, low coal mining profita-
bility stipulates high investment risks making imple-
mentation of innovative technologies commercially
senseless.
The above listed has specified the paper objective
to clarify Synchro-Mining matter while bringing to light
additional motivations of the new ideology for business
structures.
Seeing into the matter has shown that discrepan-
cies, concerning the ideology understanding, emerge
from the Mining notion itself.
According to the definitions by the Mining Law of
Ukraine and Collins English Dictionary, insisting on the
primacy of a mineral mining from the Earth’s interior, it
is expedient to mention the three stages of a deposit de-
velopment: Рre-Mining (i.e. exploration, and construc-
tion of a mining enterprise); proper Mining (i.e. activi-
ties by a mine, open pit, quarry, well etc.); and Post-
Mining. Hence, if winning is available then there is Mi-
ning; if winning is not available then Post-Mining is
meant.
If one proceeds from a mine primacy, predeter-
mined by Merriam-Webster dictionary, then in case of
the mine availability, we observe Mining; if a mine is
not available, then Post-Mining is meant.
Affinity Mine in Western Virginia (Appalachians,
the USA) being potential, shallow, and with great re-
serves of prime-grade cocking coal, was abandoned for
more than quarter of a century before Ukrainian Metin-
vest Company purchased it in 2009. Collins English
Dictionary interprets the situation as Post-Mining and
Merriam-Webster Dictionary interprets it as Mining: the
mine is not liquidated and its reserves are not exhausted.
Hence, to solve the problem, it is expedient to use
a Case Study, i.e. a technique analyzing specific and ac-
tual economic, social, and business situations.
Case 1. Power stations on the basis of mines
Power stations on the basis of minesare the alterna-
tives to diversify core activities of a mining enterprise.
In Ukraine, the idea of fuel and energy complexes
as thermal power objects started to be developed in the
1990s [17, 18]. Mine peak power stations (i.e. storages
of power resources) are more actual currently. Germany
develops actively a project to transform a closed Pros-
per-Hanielmine (i.e. a mine which terminated coal ex-
traction) into 200 MW pumped storage plant [19]. The
time has come when the expediency of such structures
was explained in 2000 by M.M. Tabachenko, an em-
ployee of the National Mining University [20].
The point at issue is that when electric power is
critical, it is necessary to bypass water from a surface
cunette to underground space through a turbine generat-
ing electricity simultaneously; if electric power surplus
O. Amosha, D. Cherevatskyi, G. Pivnyak, O. Shashenko, L. Borodai
36
Економічний вісник Донбасу № 4(58), 2019
takes place, the water should be pumped out from a
mine.
Classification nuances are available like in a case
with Affinity Mine. Since coal is not mined, the project
may be classified as that corresponding to Post-Mining
ideology. However, the mine has not been closed; its
shafts and mine workings are used for operational pro-
cedures. Thus, the above may be considered rationally
Synchro-Mining.
Hannelore Kraft, the Minister President of North
Rhine-Westphalia, considers it as preservation of the
largest centre of national industry as a participant of
power market [21].
The same is true for Estonian project in Muuga
connected with bypassing of water from neighbouring
gulf through hydraulic turbines to the mine workings of
the mined out granite quarry [22].
The compressed air energy storages (CAESs) are
also potential energy accumulators.
There are two operating gas-turbine power stations
with underground pneumatic accumulators in the world.
One of them is near German town of Huntorf; another
one is in the neighbourhood of American town of McIn-
tosh, Alabama. 290 MW and 110 MW electricity gener-
ating parts of the stations are surface-mounted, and
high-speed compressed air storages (i.e. natural ca-
verns) are at 600-800 depth.
It is characteristic that the power stations cannot be
considered as those belonging to Synchro-Mining cate-
gory due to the nonavailability of Mining as itself but
also nonavailability of a traditional mine. This is not true
for RICAS 2020 Project being implemented currently
by a consortium of large European companies which
budgetary financing is almost € 1.4 mln. The Project is
transformation of non-operating Austrian mine into a
compressed air storage for a surface power station [23].
Case 2. Coal extraction and preparation
Such two Donbas enterprises as Pokrovkse Col-
liery Group and Shakhta imeni A.F. Zasiadka mine met-
allurgical coal. Their activities differ in the fact that
Pokrovkse Colliery Group, owned by Donetskstal Com-
pany, delivers rough coal as a commodity product to a
Sviato-Varvarynska preparation plant through transport
facilities i.e. to another legal entity belonging to Do-
netskstal Company as well. In turn, Shakhta imeni A.F.
Zasiadka owns and uses the connected mine and
Kyivska central preparation plant. Coal concentrate is a
final product of the enterprise.
In the context of almost similar methods of coal ex-
traction and conversion, mine one implements Mining
schedule, and mine two is engaged in Synchro-Mining
since coal mining and its preparation are synchronous
processes.
Concerning the above, waste treatment aspect is in-
dicative one.
If this is done using “mine and preparation plant”
complex, then the development of a circular economy
(i.e. decrease in the waste amount and its return to pro-
duction cycle) then it can be considered as Synchro-
Mining. The disposal of high-ash coal materials accu-
mulated in tailings separated from the ore mines [24] is
classic Post-Mining, but not Synchro-Mining. Con-
versely, recycling of high-ash coal materials, accumu-
lated in tailing dumps separated from the mines of pre-
paration plants, [24] is the classic Post-Mining rather
than Synchro-Mining.
Сase 3. Methane production and utilization
Such leading coal mining countries as the USA,
Canada, Australia, and China solve the problem of rock
mass degasification by means of preliminary develop-
ment using surface well drilling before mining starts
within the mine field. During 5-8 years, the collieries
decrease gas concentration drastically prior to the start
of mining owing to the well drilled from the surface be-
fore mining; moreover, they have both commercial me-
thane and significant impact. That is the classic methane
Mining rather than Synchro-Mining.
However, it takes almost a decade to decrease me-
thane saturation of rock mass by 50% but the available
Ukrainian Companies have no time for that. Conse-
quently, to degas effectively coal seams, Pokrovskoye
Colliery Group combines mining both temporary and
spatially with surface well construction. The mine func-
tioning is Synchro-Mining.
Methane obtained either through traditional Mi-
ning or while combining drilling and mining operations,
and utilized by a cogeneration plant, a mine boiler or a
near-mine refueling plant, classifies the complex as
Synchro-Mining.
The same is true for underground coal gasification.
To adapt the complex to the Synchro-Mining architec-
ture, utilization part is required, which can be either a
surface power plant or a chemical plant for further trans-
formation of the synthesis gas. It is the only case when
it is possible to speak about synchronous operation of
two cross-sectional operations rather than about the tra-
ditional Mining of synthesis gas by means of under-
ground coal gasification.
Case 4. Synchro-Mining and Vertical Integration
Theoretically, mine-based fuel and energy techno-
logical complexes; syngaspower plants; mine methane
cogeneration modules; small and medium-sized coal-
fired power plants etc., concentrated in the hands of a
single owner, are hierarchical structures on the princi-
ples of Synchro-Mining as well as vertically-integrated
structures with positive and negative features which
Bengt Karlof mentioned as “Advanced vertical integra-
tion is a problem that troubles Mikhail Gorbachev in
Kremlin as much as Directors of General Motors in De-
troit” [25, p. 163].
Under the conditions of low profitability of coal
production or even under the conditions of its unpro-
fitability, effectiveness of the technological complex as
a whole may turn out to be an unmanageable problem
making Synchro-Mining commercially senseless.
O. Amosha, D. Cherevatskyi, G. Pivnyak, O. Shashenko, L. Borodai
37
Економічний вісник Донбасу № 4(58), 2019
As for the propriety factor, the “mine and prepara-
tion plant” complexes, mentioned in case two, are verti-
cally integrated structures in the both contexts; however,
as it has been shown, only one of them belongs to Syn-
chro-Mining models.
Case 5. Synchro-Mining and industrial parks
Eco-industrial park Red Hills EcoPlex (Choctaw
County, Mississippi, USA), involving a mine and 440
MW thermal power plant, is neither an example of Syn-
chro-Mining nor an example of a vertically-integrated
structure since neither the company, which operates the
TPP, as well as other members of the park, being a brick
factory and various agricultural firms, do not synchro-
nize their activities with solid fuel Mining commer-
cially. It is a group of disparate economic agents using
their membership right to apply steam, heat, ash, and
mine waste [26].
Another matter is an industrial park involving the
integrated coal mine and a power plant (using solid fuel
or gas fuel stored in underground facilities etc.), belong-
ing to different owners, who act as a technologically
connected heterarchical structure.
Heterarchy differs fundamentally from a tradi-
tional hierarchical company in the fact that its function-
ing is managed by two or more equivalent nerve centres.
The advantage of such an industrial-park system is
its opportunity to attract investment resources as well as
potential synergism demonstrated in the possibility of
using power plant ash to backfill mine workings; using
mine water to cool down boiler units; using mine me-
thane as an illuminating fuel etc. In this context, the
mine itself is a supplier of fuel resources and materials
as well as important consumer of electric power and
thermal power.
Owing to the opportunities, being typical for net-
work capitalism, heterarchical foundations of the for-
mations, relying upon Synchro-Mining ideology, may
generate interest in business structures (for instance,
energy corporations) as for their participation in the ac-
tivities of industrial parks, and essential increase in the
potential of unprofitable public sector of the national
coal industry [27, 28].
To implement such opportunities, in 2014 Dnipro
Polytechnic proposed software product Synchro-Mining
on the basis of the open technological platform. The
product favours more active development of tech-
noparks and industrial parks.
In 2015, UNO countries adopted the Agenda of the
Sustainable Development up to the year of 2030 [29].
The program document involves seventeen goals in-
tended to eliminate the poverty, to save the planet re-
sources, and to ensure well-being for everyone. It is sig-
nificant that the Synchro-Mining ideology is close to
seven (of the seventeen ones) Sustainable Development
Goals, namely:
7. Ensure access to affordable, reliable, sustainable
and modern energy for all;
8. Promote inclusive and sustainable economic
growth, employment, and decent work for all;
9. Build resilient infrastructure, promote sustain-
able industrialization and foster innovation;
11. Make cities inclusive, safe, resilient and sus-
tainable;
12. Ensure sustainable consumption and produc-
tion patterns;
15. Sustainably manage forests, combat desertifi-
cation, halt and reverse land degradation, halt biodiver-
sity loss; and
17. Revitalize the global partnership for sustaina-
ble development.
The analysis of Synchro-Mining alternatives, per-
formed by the paper, has shown the multidimensionality
being typical for the ideology and even controversy
stipulating complexity of its understanding both by ex-
perts and scientifically oriented people.
It has been substantiated that it is expedient to base
the Synchro-Mining phenomenon on Mining interpreta-
tion by Merriam-Webster Dictionary version relying
upon the existence primacy of a mining enterprise (i.e. a
mine, quarry, open pit, well etc.): Mining exists irre-
spective of the mineral extraction until the enterprise is
liquidated physically.
Hence, Synchro-Mining is diversification of the
key activity of a mining enterprise performed in parallel
with Mining whether it is coal or ore preparation, ge-
neration of electric energy and thermal energy, early
Post-Mining measures, commercial extraction of me-
thane, deep treatment of mine water, progress of circular
economy etc. not only in the form of vertical integration
of various businesses (i.e. hierarchical production
method) but also in the form of heterarchies (i.e. net-
work capitalism) or in the form of industrial parks.
Just Synchro-Mining, aimed at the achievement of
power autarchy of coal mining enterprises, may become
the most topical in the situation of coal extraction un-
profitability and systemic payment defaults existing in
the public sector of Ukrainian coal industry
The Synchro-Mining ideology in the form of 3-D
industrial parks will favour the attraction of investment
resources of business structures of the large corporations
as participants.
To deepen and expand the Synchro-Mining theory,
it is expedient to perform corresponding scientific and
research activities in the context of official theme,
namely: hold international forums (conferences, panel
discussions etc.), publish monographs and complex of
papers among them in English.
The obtained results will favour grouping of ex-
perts, scientists, and researchers from different coun-
tries, representing fields of sectoral, academic, and Uni-
versity science.
To activate attraction of investors (first of all, from
among power companies having desire to equip and
possess energy storages), it is expedient to support and
popularize the software Synchro-Mining platform
spread out in Dnipro Polytechnic.

To the effect of self-development of the new para-
digm of functioning of mining enterprises, it is practical
to establish international scientific-research Synchro-
Mining International Institute under the aegis of MES
and NAS of Ukraine and auspices of such large national
corporations as DTEK, Metinvest, Donetskstal etc.
Moreover, it is necessary to approach to the world lead-
ing mining corporations with a proposition to support
Synchro-Mining movement within different basins on
different continents.

Амоша О. І., Череватський Д. Ю., Півняк Г. Г.,
Шашенко О. М., Бородай Л. В. Новий погляд на
Synchro-Mining
Виконаний у роботі з використанням методу кей-
сів аналіз варіантів побудови Synchro-Mining показав
властиву самій ідеології багатоаспектність, а то й супе-
речливість, що обумовлює складність її сприйняття не
тільки практиками, а й навіть підготовленими вче-
ними.
Обґрунтовано, що в основу феномена Synchro-
Mining раціонально покласти тлумачення Mining (Гір-
ництва) у версії словника Merriam-Webster, заснова-
ного на приматі існування гірничодобувного підпри-
ємства (шахти, рудника, кар'єру, свердловини тощо):
Mining існує незалежно від видобутку корисних копа-
лин до тих пір, поки фізично не ліквідовано саме під-
приємство.
Таким чином, Synchro-Mining – це диверсифіка-
ція основної діяльності гірничодобувного підприєм-
ства, яка проводиться синхронно з Mining, будь-то в
напрямку збагачення вугілля або руди, виробництва й
акумуляції електричної та теплової енергії, заздалегідь
проведених заходів Post-Mining, комерційного видо-
бутку метану, глибокого очищення шахтних вод, роз-
витку циркулярної економіки та ін., як у формі верти-
кальної інтеграції різнопрофільних бізнесів (ієрархіч-
ний спосіб виробництва), так і у вигляді гетерархій
(мережевого капіталізму), чи індустріальних парків.
Ключові слова: Synchro-Mining, Mining, дивер-
сифікація, вертикальна интеграція, гетерархія, інду-
стріальний парк.
Amosha O., Cherevatskyi D., Pivnyak G., Sha-
shenko O., Borodai L. Synchro-Mining: the New Sight
The analysis of Synchro-Mining alternatives, per-
formed by the paper, has shown the multidimensionality
being typical for the ideology and even controversy stipu-
lating complexity of its understanding both by practices
and by qualified scientists.
It has been substantiated that it is expedient to base
the Synchro-Mining phenomenon on Mining interpretation
by Merriam-Webster Dictionary version relying upon the
existence primacy of a mining enterprise (i.e. a mine,
quarry, open pit, well etc.): Mining exists irrespective of
the mineral extraction until the enterprise is liquidated
physically.
Thus, Synchro-Mining is diversification of the key
activity of a mining enterprise performed in parallel with
Mining whether it is coal or ore preparation, generation of
electric energy and thermal energy, early Post-Mining
measures, commercial extraction of methane, deep treat-
ment of mine water, progress of circular economy etc. not
only in the form of vertical integration of various busi-
nesses (i.e. hierarchical production method) but also in the
form of heterarchies (i.e. network capitalism) or in the form
of industrial parks.
Keywords: Synchro-Mining, Mining, diversification,
vertical integration, heterarchies, industrial parks.

Шашенко А. Н., Бородай Л. В. Новый взгляд на
Synchro-Mining
Выполненный в работе с использованием метода
кейсов анализ вариантов построения Synchro-Mining
показал свойственную самой идеологии многоаспект-
ность, а то и противоречивость, что обусловливает
сложность ее восприятия не только практиками, но
даже подготовленными учеными.
Обосновано, что в основу феномена Synchro-
Mining рационально положить толкование Mining
(Горное дело) в версии словаря Merriam-Webster, осно-
ванного на примате существования горнодобыва-
ющего предприятия (шахты, рудника, карьера, сква-
жины и т.д.): Mining существует независимо от добычи
полезных ископаемых до тех пор, пока физически не
ликвидировано само предприятие.
Таким образом, Synchro-Mining – это диверсифи-
кация основной деятельности горнодобывающего
предприятия, которая проводится синхронно с Mining,
будь то в направлении обогащения угля или руды, про-
изводства и аккумуляции электрической и тепловой
энергии, заранее проведенных мероприятий Post-
Mining, коммерческой добычи метана, глубокой
очистки шахтных вод, развития циркулярной эконо-
мики и др., как в форме вертикальной интеграции раз-
нопрофильных бизнесов (иерархический способ про-
изводства), так и в виде гетерархий (сетевого капита-
лизма), или индустриальных парков.
Ключевые слова: Synchro-Mining, Mining, дивер-
сификация, вертикальная интеграция, гетерархия, ин-
дустриальный парк.
