This volume presents a selection of papers resulting from the INTAS
Project 93-1783 “Ore-bearing granites of Eurasia: Anatomy and
mag-matic-hydrothermal mechanisms of ore deposition” (INTAS =
International Association for the Promotion of Cooperation with
Scientists from the New Independent States of the Former Soviet
Union). It is the second monograph from this project, after our 1996
publication of “Granite-Related Ore Deposits of Central Kazakhstan
and Adjacent Areas” (Shatov et al, 1996).
The monograph contains 19 contributions of which 14 papers provide
regional overviews on a number of important granite and ore provinces
(northern and central Kazakhstan, Urals, Mongolia, Caucasus, Siberia,
Yakutia, Pamirs). Five other papers are on general aspects of granite
magmatism (geophysics, metasomatic zoning, volatile composition,
petrogenetic tracing). An introductory paper compiles hitherto
unavailable data on ore resources, mining production, uses, and
applications for more than one hundred major granite-related
rare-metal ore deposits of the former Soviet Union. Figure 1
illustrates the location of those areas treated in this volume. There
are a number of significant rare-metal granite areas which are not
covered by review papers. These gaps result from the fact that our
INTAS project cooperation could only reach a limited number of FSU
research groups, and that several papers submitted could not be
accepted for publication.
This volume provides a first and hitherto unavailable overview of the
geology and metallogeny of major granite-related rare-metal deposits
of Russia and adjacent countries. The papers may be used as astarting
point for those interested in a particular area. The publication will
be useful to the mineral exploration and mining community, and to all
geoscientists interested in granite-related metallogeny.
