Abstract

The article presents a monitoring system based on the Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) for assessing deformations in mining areas. The study was conducted at the Kalmakyr open-pit mine, where a network of seven GNSS stations was installed in the most geologically vulnerable zones. Four static measurement cycles were carried out between 2024 and 2025. High-frequency 3D data were processed using the GAMIT/GLOBK software. The analysis showed that displacements in active areas reached 68 mm horizontally and 31 mm vertically.
