As a partner of GSEU, the Ukrainian Association of Geologists within the framework of the tasks of Work Package 8 disseminates information regarding some published news and scientific articles in Ukraine on the main thematic areas of the project.
Two types of the main mineral are proposed for the extraction of the Kapitansky deposit. The first is silicate nickel, which is mainly located in nontronitic crusts of weathering, the second is chromite ores, which is concentrated in hyperbasite of the massif of the same name. The development of the deposit involves two options for opening and extraction, as well as the availability of two technological types of ores. All this complicates the process of object development, but complex development significantly increases the economic effect of ore extraction. And this is not an isolated example of the complexity of our Ukrainian bowels. it is more profitable to work the crust immediately, and then to work the crystalline rocks deeper; or it makes sense to take the bark after working out the mine in crystalline rocks. The next problem that needs to be solved when processing complex ores with different host rocks is different technological types of ore beneficiation. As a rule, this involves the construction of separate technological enrichment lines. We considered several options for obtaining final products and obtaining the appropriate economic effect. This is how the model of the Kapitansky deposit was built, which takes into account the extraction of all useful components from a single ore mass. the value of the resource base of complex deposits in the subsoil directly proportionally depends on complex development and obtaining final products of maximum processing.
