FINE FORMS OF PRECIOUS METALS IN CARBON ORE OF KAZAKHSTAN AND PROSPECTS FOR THEIR USE
The article summarizes data on the contents and finely dispersed forms of gold and platinum metals in carbonaceous ores of gold, iron, vanadium, phosphorus, potassium salts, as well as coal, coal - uranium and shungite deposits in Kazakhstan and, briefly, foreign countries. These forms carry the predominant amount of precious metals in carbonaceous ores, are poorly studied, and are irretrievably lost during the development of deposits, which leads to colossal financial losses (billions of US dollars). It is proposed to create in the republic a specialized enterprise for the study of these forms and revaluation of deposits.
