Geochemical map of Russia – compilation principles and metallogenic investigations

A set of geochemical maps at scales of 1 : 15,000,000 – 1 : 2,500,000 – 1 : 1,000,000 – 1,200,000 for a comprehensive environmental resource and economic assessment of Russia and its regions is a component of the Atlas of composite maps of Russia that includes cartographic materials with explanatory notes “Space Image of Russia”, “Atlas of Geophysical Maps of Russia” and “Atlas of Geochemical Maps of Russia”. One of basic elements of the set, the 1 : 15 M Map of geochemical orientation of structural petrologic (geodynamic) complexes of Russia (further referred to as the map), is included in the National Atlas of Russia (2006). The map is based on the 1 : 5 M Tectonic zoning map of Russia showing the plate tectonics concept. The map and accompanying inset maps geochemically characterize the structural and petrologic (geodynamic) complexes of tectonic structures of various ranks that enables obtaining new information with decreased scale of mapping. Individual and comprehensive characteristics of the geochemical orientation of structural petrologic complexes allow evaluating the mineragenic potential of marketable and critical minerals in Russia in general and in its individual regions.
Key words: Map of Russia, geochemistry, minerageny, mapping, geological structure, gold, mineral resources.
