The geoecological problems of the lack of land suitable for organizing residential facilities in the Moscow Region, as well as in order to improve the economic balance of the region, it is necessary to create new growth points that stimulate the development of the economy, industrial and civil construction. One of the means of solving this problem may be the restoration and return to the economic turnover of the land of the worked quarries for the extraction of building sand, sand and gravel, as well as clay and loam. The article discusses the current career of the Moscow region. Based on the data of the list of licenses for the use of subsoil for the purposes of geological exploration, exploration and production of the main mineral resources of the Ministry of Ecology and Nature Management of the Moscow Region, an analysis is made of the following factors: territorial location, resources extracted, area and distance from settlements. The largest number of quarries is concentrated in the western and eastern parts of the Moscow region close to settlements, the area of which is up to 50 hectares. As a result, two main tasks were set: to prevent the irrational use of quarries in the immediate vicinity of housing and to carry out the restoration of quarries that have already been turned into landfills. The analysis showed that most of the sites, mainly located in the western and eastern clusters, are potentially possible to use for organizing recreational, residential, administrative, as well as industrial territories, and also, due to the territories of reclaimed quarries, it is possible to solve the social problem of providing for large families in the Moscow Region land suitable for living.

Key words: рекультивация, разрабатываемые карьеры, основные полезные ископаемые, reclamation, developing careers, basic minerals
