Computer modeling of ore formation processes

Abstract

An attempt is made to prepare a presentation for a visual reflection of the processes of magmatic ore formation, the dynamics of which are conveyed with the help of MS PowerPoint program. The classification of mechanisms of magmatic ore formation with their subdivision into processes of magma differentiation and concentration of isolated ore matter is carried out. Three mechanisms of magmatic differentiation (crystallization, liquation and distillation) and four mechanisms of ore matter concentration (gravitation, injection, explosion and flotation) are distinguished. The selected processes are modeled and illustrated by examples of the formation of specific deposits. The conditions of magmatic differentiation and concentration of ore matter processes, as well as the factors influencing the peculiarities of their manifestation are considered.
