Открытие в Монголии Оюу Толгоя, одного из крупнейших меднозолоторудных месторождений мира, стало замечательным событием 21го столетия а горной промышленности страны
Авторы данной книги принимали непосредственное участие в поисковых работах, приведших к открытию этого крупного месторождения на юге Монголии. В настоящее время Оюу Толгой входит в список уникальных месторождений мирового класса На страницах своей книги авторы откровенно и интересно передают свою историю событий, о том. как это произошло <...>

In previous years, the genesis of uniquely large mineral deposits became one of the most urgent geological problems because of the key role played by giant deposits: accounting for <5 % of the currently developed mineral deposits, these deposits satisfy 85 % the world’s consumption of mineral resources. The development of these deposits should provide a basis for the stable progression of our civilization (Rundkvist and Kravchenko 1996 ). Another important aspect in the analysis of super-large mineral deposits is their genesis because these deposits are, in fact, giant geochemical anomalies in the Earth’s crust (e.g., the PGE concentrations in the Noril’sk ores are six to seven orders of magnitude higher than those in the clarkes) <...>

В книге рассматриваются системы разработки различных типов жильных месторождений полезных ископаемых, применяемые как в Советском Союзе, так и за рубежом.
Приводится горногеологическая характеристика жильных месторождений, дается их классификация, рассматриваются особенности разработки жильных месторождений.

This volume is a collection of lectures presented during the 2009 International School on High-pressure Crystallography, which took place at the Ettore Majorana Center for Scientific Culture, between June 4 and 14, 2009, in the very picturesque Sicilian town of Erice. The 2009 school was the 41st course of the “International School of Crystallography” organized at the Majorana Center and was directed by Elena Boldyreva (Novosibirsk University) and Przemyslaw Dera (University of Chicago). Unmatched support and excellent on-site organization was provided by the expert team consisting of Prof. Paola Spadon (Uniersity of Padova), Prof. Lodovico Riva di San Severino (University of Bologna), Elena Papinutto and Prof. John Irvin (University of California, San Franciso), aided by great team of young local organizers (“orange scarfs”). <...>

Представлены результаты исследований по переработке эвдиалитового концентрата с применением метода сорбционной конверсии, в котором концентрат разлагается разбавленными растворами минеральных кислот в присутствии сульфокатионита с получением насыщенного металлами сорбента и кремнезёмсодержащих кислотных растворов.

The discovery of Oyu Tolgoi, Mongolia, one of the largest copperegold deposits in the world, became one of the most remarkable events in the mining industry of Mongolia during the 21st century.
The authors of the book took a direct part in the events that consequently led to the discovery of Oyu Tolgoi, which is now rightly included in the global list of unique mineral deposits. In the following pages, the authors convey their discovery story interestingly and honestly.

This book is a collection of reviews concerning the structural and coordination chemistry of actinide compounds. Over the past decade, these compounds have attracted considerable attention because of their importance for radioactive waste management, catalysis, ion-exchange and absorption applications, and various other applications. Synthetic and natural actinide compounds form as a result of alteration of spent nuclear fuel and radioactive waste under Earth surface conditions, during burn-up of nuclear fuel in reactors, and as oxidation products of uranium mines and mine tailings. Soils and sediments contaminated by actinides often contain such phases as well. Actinide compounds are also of considerable interest to materials scientists owing to the unique electronic properties of actinides which give rise to interesting physical properties that are controlled by the structural architecture of the respective compounds. <...>

Some families of inorganic compounds form an array of more or less closely related, very complex structures with a number of independent atomic positions and unit cells of large dimensions. These structures can be broken up into a number of fragments (modules) that have relatively simple substructures but are joined into a more complex whole. Some modules occur in many members of these families, often in variably expanded/contracted forms as well as combined with elements of other kinds.

В настоящее время на мировых биржах торгуются акции более 1700 горнодобывающих компаний, из них российских компаний (или компаний с частичным российским капиталом) - не более 20, что явно несоразмерно с минерально-сырьевой ролью России в мире.
