Geological conditions of formation and complex development of Torchyn apatite-ilmenite deposits

Torchyn residual deposit is located in the southeastern part of Volodarsk-Volynsky basic rocks massif. It is confined to stratified habroides of marginal facies, which are covered by weathering crust. This deposit didn’t developed because of long-term payback period.

Description
Summary:Torchyn residual deposit is located in the southeastern part of Volodarsk-Volynsky basic rocks massif. It is confined to stratified habroides of marginal facies, which are covered by weathering crust. This deposit didn’t developed because of long-term payback period. Besides apatite and ilmenite it is possible to extract scandium and vanadium from the Torchyn deposit ores. The kaolin is also valuable component for production of building materials is in the Torchyn ores. So, complexity of the Torchyn deposit is confirmed by the results of computer modeling and geological-economical calculation. This alloved to decreasethe payback period up to 3 years.
