Granitoid intrusions of the Subpolar Urals and their relation to the host rocks
Abstract
The crystal-bearing strip of the Subpolar Urals, the geological description of which is the subject of this article, covers the watershed part of the Ural Range, located within 64°30' - 65°20' north latitude, i.e. from Mount Khus-Oika in the south to the Maldy Range in the north. Along the main watershed of the Ural Range, the crystal-bearing strip has been traced for 150 km and is 25 km wide. The geological study of the crystal-bearing strip is being carried out by the Polar-Ural Expedition of the 8th Main Directorate of the Ministry of Railways of the USSR. The author of the article took part in the work of this expedition for 10 years. In 1952, the author, together with geologist V. A. Smirnova, completed the compilation of a geological map of the crystal-bearing strip on a scale of 1:100,000 for an area of about 4000 km2. Unfortunately, this map cannot be included as a necessary supplement to this article due to its large size.
