Опыт структурно-геоморфологических исследований для прогнозирования пространственного размещения кимберлитовых тел

Аннотация

An experience in the present-day relief analysis is described aimed for kimberlee bodies location, with special reference to a kimberlee field in Yakoutia. A morphometric technique of isolong has been used; the results obtained having been compared with geological and geophysical data. A correlation has been established between the kimberlee bodies location and tectonic structure of the area, which permits to select most promising places for search for kimberlites. It is especially important that the morphometric methods can be used at earliest stages of the kimberlee field studies.
