Cosmostructural model of the Kalgutinskiy rare-metal deposit area (Mountainous Altai)

Abstract

Cosmostructures of the Kalgutinskiy rare-metal deposit area (Mountainous Altai) have been studied on the materials of multispectral space survey Landsat ETM+ and radar-tracking survey SRTM. The area is localized inside of the large ring structure of a complex construction, characterized by the long multistage (multipulse) development. Immersing of the root (focus) part of the structure from the north - northwest to the east - southeast is established. Position of the ring structure is controlled by the crossing knot of fracture zones of northwest, northeast and northeast - sublatitudinal directions. The Kalgutinskiy granite massif and the deposit itself are located in the internal belt of the structure in the ring 15,2 km in diameter. The perspective of ore-bearing ability of the southeast part of the area is highly evaluated in connection with development of small ring structures of the second type
