Development of geological and geophysical models of regional zones of metasomatism within the Ukrainian shield for prospecting for ore occurrences of minerals

ABSTRACT

 

Research report: 118 pp., 58 fig., 1 appendix, 36 refernces.

The object of the study is regional and local manifestations of metasomatism of the Ukrainian Shield, promising for the targeting of endogenous mineralization.

Goal of the work:

– based on the constructed geoelectric models, the development of geological and geophysical criteria for the search for ore minerals and the implementation of a forecast of mineralization in metasomatism zones;

− selection based on the results of detailed geophysical studies in regional metasomatism zones of areas that are promising for further prospecting and exploration.

Research methods – mineralogical and petrographic study of the material composition of metasomatic formations, field electrical surveys using AMT and MTS methods, 1D inversion of the obtained data, 3D modeling of geoelectric anomalies in electrical conductivity, identification of structural patterns.

The use of geological and geophysical criteria for ore content allows for regional and local forecasting aimed at searching for ore occurrences of minerals associated with metasomatism processes within the research regions.

The results of the work will be used to select promising areas for priority prospecting and exploration.
