The primary cosmic ray flux is investigated using a previously proposed new method for estimation of the mass composition and the energy spectrum of primary cosmic radiation based only on atmospheric Cerenkov light flux analysis. The densities of this flux in extensive air showers initiated by primary proton, helium, carbon, iron nuclei and gamma quanta are simulated with CORSIKA 5.62 code for Chacaltaya observation level in the energy range 10 Tev 10 PeV. An adequate model for approximation of lateral distribution of Cerenkov light in showers of mentioned above primaries is exploited. The mixed mass composition taken into account the abundances according the latest experimental data is simulated and the influence of energy and shower axis determination accuracies is studied. Two different detector displacements of atmospheric Cerenkov detectors are compared.
