On the inclusion of expenses for geological exploration works in the cost and prices of minerals
Authors:
Abstract
Before starting the development of a field, it is necessary to discover and explore it, to determine its suitability for industrial development. This requires the expenditure of social labor, the scale of which cannot be underestimated. Thus, the cost per 1 m of explored reserves varies from 2 kopecks for iron ores to several thousand rubles for some rare metals and ranges from 0.1 to 25% of the cost of the final product. In 1951‑1956 capital investments in geological exploration amounted to 12.3% of all capital investments in the coal industry, 37.3% in the oil industry, 53.6% in the gas industry.
