company Kazzinc to find new deposits of polymetallic ores in the territory of
Kazakhstan, the press service of the university said on Wednesday.
With
reference to the director of the Analytical Center for Geochemistry of Natural
Systems TSU Platon Tishin it is reported that the deposit of ore, which is easy
to reconnoiter, has been mastered for a long time, and the world began a second
wave of searches. The object of attention of Kazzinc is the Rudny Altai,
located mainly in the East Kazakhstan region, where the active search for ore
was stopped in the 1980s, and the results of the work were archived.
"(Scientists
of the university) have already investigated more than 5 thousand meters of
core. In the near future geologists will study mineral composition and features
of the structure of the ore. Along with this, scientists will have to work with
archival data. Once it ends, geologists will prompt Kazzinc specialists, which
raw materials contains the subsoil of East Kazakhstan and describe the features
of the strata bedding", – the press service reports.

(unified nomenclature and data system) which will allow to recover a large part
of the archived data and use it.
The press
