Abstract

The article presents the results of an area assessment of the distribution of small water bodies in the KBR. The inventory describes 83 objects, 75 of which are springs. Almost all of them are confined to such types of aquifer systems as fractured-vein water and water zones of tectonic disturbances. The correlation between the discontinuous tectonic faults, landslides arrays and education of the springs are fracture-tectonic (fault) type. Large - scale work on this problem of research on the territory of the KBR is carried out for the first time and are of great practical importance. Further, in determining the rational use of small water bodies for economic purposes it is necessary to conduct complex specialized investigations (hydrochemical, environmental, etc.).
