The article examines the issues of effectiveness improving of use of geopotential of solid mineral deposits based on increasing knowledge about geological resources. The authors reveal the theoretical basis of the category -geopotential-. Special attention is paid to the features of cluster structure of deposits, where in the contours of the mining there are up to fifty and more percent of empty rocks and substandard reserves. The article proposes to keep account of natural patterns of mineral matter distribution,...

The article analyzes the mineral and raw material base of coal deposits of the Arctic zone of the Republic of Sakha (Yakutia), all of them were explored in the Soviet time in the middle of 40-50 years. The paper presents a comparative characteristic of the geographic and economic, mining and geological and geotechnological conditions of coal deposits in the basins of north rivers Jana and Indigirka. The qualitative characteristics of the coals have been studied, which showed that from the point of view of consumer...

The paper presents a detailed review of ore and alluvial gold mineral raw material base of North East of Yakutia and estimates the economic efficiency of development of gold deposits not involved in the exploitation. Research methods: analysis and comparison, qualitative and quantitative features of the mineral raw material base of Yakutia, formed and replenished databases on a number of deposits of the region; methods of analogy, economic-statistical, methods of system analysis and decision support, evaluation of...

Numerous geological observations indicate that alluvial deposits (gold, tin, diamonds, polymetalles, etc.) have a cluster structure, both in general and in local areas. Up to 80 ? 90 % of the reserves of useful components can be contained in 10 ? 25 % of the volume of traditionally recovered sands. The purpose of the study is to assess the extent and nature of the clustering of reserves in dredged gold deposits. Main methods of researches: analysis and generalization of information of the features on the structure...
