Topaz granites and ongonites оf Chaunsky mining area (Chukotka)
- Ph.D. associate professor Saint Petersburg State Mining University
Abstract
Having used an optical and raster electronic microscopy were analyzed a topaz granites with accompanying them ongonites discovered for the first time in Chaunsky area of Chukotka. Finding history, specifics of geological location, mineral composition and rock structure are described. Their connection with stannane orebody is considered.The topaz granites have essentially albite composition, contain zinnwaldite, topaz, fluorite and first located in Far East granites wolframoixiolite. The pyrkakajsky intrusive complex of rare-metal granites is allocated. A conclusion about the development possibility of Chaunsky rare-metal deposits potentials is drawn.
