With basics of the resource reproduction and comprehensive extraction of ores have been described, the authors offer mining techniques, based on standard engineering solutions, to convert low quality ores to a quality product in any geological and mining conditions. It is found to be efficient to reproduce low grade georesources with mixed physico-technical and physicochemical technologies. The implementation of the resource-reproducing techniques requires that the baseline design includes the determined conditions for low quality ore re-excavation and that the accepted engineering solutions are realized at all stages of the comprehensive exploitation of a mineral deposit.
