MANIFESTATION OF POTENTIALLY PLATINUM CONTAINING ULTRABASITES IN THE GEOCHEMICAL ANOMALIES OF NI, CR AND CO BASED ON THE EXAMPLE OF THE EASTERN PART OF FRONT RANGE (KABARDINO-BALKARSKAYA REPUBLIC)

Abstract

It is shown that ultrabasites of the mineragenic zone of Front Range possess the geochemical and mineralogical signs of platinum containing. To evaluate the degree of the prevalence of potentially platinum containing ultrabasites the GIS-working of the geochemical data massif, obtained as a result of the detailed metallometric survey of its eastern part of Front Range is carried out. It is established that the potentially platinum containing ultrabasites, developed in the form of small intrusive bodies, and developed on them metasomatity are reflected in the second halos of scattering by geochemical anomalies of Ni, Cr and Co, which makes it possible according to this sign to localize areas for setting of the expensive search operations on the metals of platinum group.
