PALEOVOLCANIC RECONSTRUCTION OF THE MEDNOGORSK ORE DISTRICT
The article shows the main results of researches conducted on the territory of the Mednogorsk ore district, located in the Southern Urals. Predecessors applied the existing geological concepts and paradigms to a structure of South Ural. As a result, there is a situation that the objective geological...

The article shows the main results of researches conducted on the territory of the Mednogorsk ore district, located in the Southern Urals. Predecessors applied the existing geological concepts and paradigms to a structure of South Ural. As a result, there is a situation that the objective geologicalpicture still isn’t present. Dependences of minerals of different type on structural elements it isn’t observed though huge actual material is saved up. The view of the territory of the Mednogorsk ore district from the point of view of presence at the historical past of large volcanic structures, which were a source of volcanic sedimentary rocks and industrial concentrations of ore minerals, is given in the article. As a result of the carried-out paleovolcanic reconstruction the Mednogorsk paleovolcanic structure was allocated. Visible diameter of the structure from 30 km in northeast and to 60 km in the northwest direction, other part is overlaid by sedimentary Devonian, Carboniferous and younger deposits.
