On the Investigation of Mount Magnitnaya in 1911
Authors:
Abstract
The investigation of Mount Magnitnaya, carried out by me this past summer on behalf of the Board of the Joint-Stock Company of the Beloretsk Iron Works, constitutes the beginning of work, whose practical goal is to determine the iron ore reserves of this deposit. In addition, these investigations were intended to clarify the srucural features of the deposit, which must be taken into account when devising a rational extraction plan. The work consisted of compiling the most detailed geological map possible; determining, in accordance with the data obtained as the geological investigation progressed, the location and type of exploratory work necessary to the ascertain reserves, and carrying out of these works.
