Abstract

Mineral mining using the in-situ leaching method is based on injecting of leaching solution into the ore formation through injection wells, leaching out the mineral and extracting the pregnant solution (dissolved mineral) through the production wells. During the stage of the field designing, the main task is to determine the optimal drilling-in pattern, which implies the choice of the optimal location of the injection and production wells. This article is considered the different modes of the distance between production and injection wells with a hexagonal location and determines the optimality based on the economic indicators of each mode. As a result of the study, for the problem statement, the optimal distance between the wells was determined.
