The article shows that the implementation of Industry 4.0 will be implemented in many sectors of the global economy, including the coal industry. In Russia, “positive” experience has been accumulated in connection with the implementation of the Smart Mine and Smart Cut projects. The purpose of this article is to identify trends in the innovative development of the mining industry, as well as to systematize the basic elements of the Industry 4.0 project on basic mining processes. In the process of the study, the authors of the article prepared an enlarged systematization of technological solutions for the mining industry, which corresponds to the main directions of the global Industry-4.0 project and allows us to proceed with the formation of a technological platform that includes the need to implement the projects “Virtual Mine of the Future” and “Virtual Section of the Future”.
