Abstract

The article discusses the concept of socio-economic and strategic development of the Rivne region (Ukraine), especially the exploration,
testing and industrial exploitation of strategic mineral resources. The concept envisages the use of energy-efficient technologies for raw
material extraction, especially for amber deposits. It points out that conventional methods of amber extraction are harmful to the
environment, and suggests the use of complex methods, such as mechanical and hydraulic technologies.
The article examines the challenge of implementing geotechnological methods at mining enterprises and assesses its complexity in
mining science and practice. Scientific research in this area has been conducted, but comprehensive studies of the sampling and
extraction methods of amber are still significant and relevant for the national interest.
Moreover, the article reports the results of research on the formation of a jet in a hydraulic monitor and the application of a telescopic
hydraulic monitor to extend the range of rock fragmentation, including an analysis of jet parameters and the dynamics of hydraulic
rock breaking, such as amber-bearing rocks. The conclusions relate to the linear expansion of the jet, the reduction of axial velocity with
the increase of hydrostatic pressure and the efficiency of the telescopic hydromonitor to extend the fragmentation range.
