Synopsis top ↑

This Atlas presents geological-genetic models for the key mineral deposit types of Kazakhstan, including deposits of metallic and non-metallic mineral resources (ores, diamonds, and industrial minerals), and fuel and energy resources (hydrocarbons and uranium deposits).

The geological models, which were developed by Kazakh geologists, are based on examples from studied deposits and ore fields. They feature detailed geological maps and cross-sections for each of the deposits discussed in this volume.

Principles and methodologies used to construct these models utilize complex information in order to predict the parameters and scales of ore/mineral accumulation and the conditions of formation of the mineral resources. Such models permit a focused approach to be used in metallogenetic analysis, prognosis and prospecting of deposits.

The Atlas addresses a broad range of specialists of economic geology dealing who study, explore and evaluate such deposits, and will also be of great use to geology students and economic geologist studying their formation.
