STRIKE-SLIP DISPLACEMENTS IN THE STRUCTURE OF THE UDOKAN COPPER DEPOSIT, EASTERN SIBERIA

Abstract

Analysis of specificity of folded structure of the unique Udokan deposit showed that disjunctive ruptures as witnesses of ore-localization medium activity in many aspects determined its enhanced ore-bearing potential. The ordinary shear and shear displacement structures in the folded strata control the deposit spatial structure, as well as distribution in them of ore bearing horizons and ore substance.
