Modern mining enterprises operate in conditions of high complexity, uncertainty and dynamism of the external environment, therefore one of the main priority areas of activity is the formation of innovative strategies for the development of mining enterprises of the metallurgical complex. Features of mining enterprises are capital intensity, energy and material intensity of production. Investment resources play a significant role in the formation of the resource potential of an enterprise in the mining and metallurgical industry. It is they who determine the existing opportunities for enterprises to introduce simple and extended reproduction. The main goal of investment activity is to ensure the effective implementation of alternative strategies for industry enterprises, which is achieved through the implementation of the following tasks:

• Achievement of high rates of economic development of enterprises;
• Maximization of income from investment activities;
• Minimization of investment risks;
• Ensuring financial stability and solvency of industry enterprises.

A feature of the mechanism for the implementation of investment and innovation activities of industrial enterprises is that it includes the constituent elements of innovation and investment activities. In the course of investment activities, resources are invested in updated equipment, which is necessary for the production of an improved product, but created without using the latest discoveries of fundamental science. This allows you to reduce the initial investment compared to innovative projects and get additional profit due to the competitive advantages of an improved product.

IV. DISCUSSION

Investment and innovation activity, on the contrary, begins with the establishment of the necessary characteristics of improved products, which determine the requirements for equipment for its production. Then the existing equipment is analyzed and a plan for its modernization is developed, taking into account the innovative and inventive developments of the labor collective. Based on these data, the required amount of financing, its sources and other economic characteristics of the project are estimated. The problems of forming innovative strategies for the development of mining enterprises of the metallurgical complex are quite complex for the modern economy, therefore, in the development of a scientific and methodological apparatus for the formation of innovative strategies for the development of mining enterprises of the metallurgical complex, which differ in taking into account industry features and the specifics of their manifestation, one should:

1. To identify latent deterrents for the innovative development of mining enterprises of the metallurgical complex; the author's approach distinguishes the allocation of groups of resource, production and environmental factors, which made it possible to present the innovative development of mining enterprises of the metallurgical complex as a purposeful dynamic process, to systematize its directions, which comprehensively ensure the competitiveness of mining enterprises of the metallurgical complex; propose measures of state support for innovative development, taking into account the specifics of the economic activity of mining enterprises of the metallurgical complex;
