Abstract. A special feature of the open-pit mining of the Bazhenov chrysotile asbestos deposit is the location of the Tsentralny and Yuzhny pits surrounded by industrial and urban buildings, limiting the possibilities for further development of open-pit mining in deep horizons. The transfer of these buildings is associated with enormous costs and economically does not make any sense. In this regard, the task of establishing the technical and economic feasibility of mining asbestos by underground or open-underground methods is very urgent. Three variants of underground geotechnology have been developed for opening and mining reserves beyond the limit contour of pit taking into account the scheme of combined mining and differing in the asbestos content in the balance reserves, the mining system used and the mine production capacity. It has been established that the combined mining of the Bazhenov deposit is technically possible and economically feasible according to a parallel scheme with underground mining of reserves with an average asbestos content of 4.4 %, which is ensured by the use of modern highly efficient underground geotechnologies. This makes it possible to extend the service life of the enterprise by at least 8 years.
