The article describes the directions of mining industry digitalization, the advantages of implementing digital technologies in the process of forming the finished products` cost and price, associated with increasing the reality of the resource base, optimizing the cost of materials and equipment, improving the system for predicting production failures, monitoring the implementation of the plan. The risks of using digital technology in mining enterprises due to insufficient automation of production processes, ensuring cybersecurity and staff qualifications are listed. In addition, there is a justification for the existing potential and identified threats, and the technologies used in the implementation of the federal and regional digitalization program or planned for use in the next year by enterprises of the Kuzbass coal mining industry, as well as the problems associated with their implementation are described.
