Areas of mineral resource deposit concentration within the boundaries of Sayans-Baikal mountainous region

[摘要] The aim of this paper is to identify and briefly describe ore-bearing areas where industrially significant mineral deposits are concentrated. Methods. Generalization and analysis of materials covering specifics of location and localization of ore and rock deposits in the geological structure and rock complexes of Sayans-Baikal mountainous region. Results East-Sayans, Akitkan-North Baikal, Lower Vitim and Vitim-Charsk ore-bearing areas have been identified as being territorial groupings of mineral deposits. Geological characteristics of the most important mineral deposits are given for each of them, accenting the largest and unique deposits, such as Kholodninskoye polimetallic, Udokan copper, Sukhoy Log gold ore and others. Development conditions of these objects are highlighted.
