NEW NON-SCARN TYPES OF TUNGSTEN MINERALIZATION OF THE KARATUBE-CHAKYLKALYAN ORE REGION

Abstract

In Uzbekistan, for geological exploration for many years, four geological-industrial types of tungsten deposits have been identified. Until now, the tungsten mineralization of the skarn-scheelite type has been studied in the Karatyuba-Chakylkalyan ore field. To date, tungsten ore mineralization of the gussai type in mineralized granitoids and sarykul type in polycomponent metasomatites broken down by aluminosilicate rocks has been identified in this region. The prospective potential of these two types are estimated. Although these types are more indicative for large deposits, they can be exploited in socio-geographically-economically favorable conditions.
