As part of the Bolashak mine, the two deposits are being developed: Millionnoe and Almaz-Zhemchuzhina.     The length of tunnels exceeds 21 km and fully automated lifting machines have a speed of about 16 m/s.     New, high-performance smart drilling rigs with automated operation can be controlled from the surface.
