Topography evolution and bauxite-containing deposits conservation at the Central Siberian Plateau near Yenisei River

Abstract

The paper discusses conditions under which planation surfaces, weathering crusts and various karst landforms were formed at the Central Siberian Plateau close to the Yenisei River; all the bauxite deposits in the region are associated with their formation. Different types of bauxite deposits appeared to be connected with certain morphostructures or morphostructural zones, the latter are estimated with view to bauxite deposits conservation and prospects to search of certain kinds of deposits
