Dunits of Vasilyevo - Shaitanskaya dacha in the Urals

Article preview

Shaitanskaya Dacha is located on the very ridge of the southern part of the Middle Urals, included in Sheet 138 of the general geological map of Russia. To the south, the dacha is bordered by the Chusovaya River, which serves as a natural boundary with Revdinskaya Dacha; to the north and west, it adjoins Bilimbaevskaya Dacha, and to the east, Verkh-Isetskaya Dacha. The western chain consists of individual mountains: Volchikha and the three Magnitnye mountains. The former is composed of gabbro, while the others are composed of amphibolites. The eastern chain, known under the name Grebni (The Ridges), is a purely serpentine range, in the very center of which there are outcrops of primary igneous rocks of ultrabasic magma: dunites and pyroxenites, interconnected by transitional rocks. Let us assign the dunites to the olivine subgroup (see the article).
