The research aims to increase the performance efficiency of hydromechanization equipment under the conditions of pit operation of the Motronivskyi Mining and Concentrating Plant by determining the dynamics of change in the water level in the mine workings when developing the overburden rocks and mineral. It has been generalized the world experience of determining the groundwater inflows into mine workings, which are mined by means of hydromechanization equipment. The methods have been developed for calculating the underground water inflow into the pit reservoir, when mining the placer ores by hydromechanization equipment. It has been proved that the dredger work in the conditions of the Motronivskyi MCP pit is possible without external source of water supply. The research results in determining the influence of underwater mining of overburden rocks and ore by dredger for decreasing the water level and its subsequent recovery in the reservoir of the Motronivskyi MCP pit, allow to develop a mode of mining operations without an external source of water supply. The dynamics of water level fluctuations in mine working during the working week have been established. The research results have shown that the dredger, taking into account the technical characteristics, can continuously operate for 9.5 days under the conditions of underground water inflow into the Motronivskyi MPP pit. It has also been established that after the dredging of the overburden rocks is stopped, the level of water in the pit for 2.5 days will recover.
