Kalashnik А. An assessment of perspective diamond-bearing Kirovograd ore region by using the systems of faults in the basement (on geo-geophysical materials)

The thesis is devoted to the search of diamond-bearing structures of different ranks in the Kirovograd ore region by using the systems of the basement faults localized with the help of gravity and magnetic prospecting surveys using the method of K.F. Tyapkin,based upon the conception of the earth's rotational regime. A logical scheme was developed integrating the prognosis of different scales taxons whose presence was confirmed by drilling. Then on the base of the established systems of faults and on a priory geological information were consequently localized such objects as mineragenetic zones, kimberlite fields, bushes of pipes and local pipes. There is developed a model of explosive structures formation process related to the shift-type faults. Such diamond-bearing structures are discovered in the region. It is established that the latitudial faults with the strike of 270o control, in considerable degree, both the dia-mond-bearing and the uranium mineralization.
