Kharytonov V. Мineralogy of scandium of Pervomayskoye deposit, Krivoy Rog basin

The peculiarities of scandium-containing mineral paragenesises localization in banded iron formation of Pervomayskoye deposit are considered in dissertation. The highest containing of scandium in natrium metasomatites is appeared. It was determined that three main Sc minerals-concentrators are: cryptocrystalline aegirine, riebeckite and magnetite. The typomorphic indications of their nigh scandium-containing are described. The riebeckite different significance in concentration of metal in central and peripheral parts of the deposit ore-bearing strata was studied by the methods of experimental modeling. The mineralogical recommendations for elaboration of the technology of scandium-containing aegirine, riebeckite and magnetite concentrate production was compiled. The results of investigations was recommended for using in mineralogical and technological mapping of complex scandium-iron ores.
