The Archean iron ore formations are considered, which possess large-scale self-similarity, a combination of chaotic and orderliness at different scale levels, coherence of features of formally different nature, fractality, i.e. features characteristic of deterministic-chaotic systems. The application of special methods of the theory of dynamical systems allowed us to obtain a quantitative measure of the complexity of the dynamics of ore genesis.
