Geoelectrochemical detection of PGE content anomalies within the Svetlyi Bor massif (Central Urals)

Abstract

Experimental and methodological works were carried out by the thermomagnetic geochemical method (TMGM), one of geoelectrochemical methods, within the Svetlyi Bor platiniferous massif (Central Urals). We have analyzed the results of observation along two (search and test) profiles. The known distribution of platinum contents along the ditch in the test profile confirmed the effectiveness of the used method and made it possible to recognize the best indicators of platinum from the geoelectrochemical research data. The obtained results helped to reveal PGE-promising areas and suggested the presence of deep-seated “blind” orebodies.

Assessment of Industrial and Financial Applications of Innovation Development

“…We will list the criteria that they must meet:  indicators should evaluate the average level of innovation development for all areas of activity;  the selected indicators should be applicable to all areas of activity, that is, be as versatile as possible, given the ubiquity of the use of innovations;  the number of indicators should be minimal in order to minimize the influence of the subjective factor, which manifests itself, as a rule, in assigning weight coefficients and minimizing the effect of averaging, which inevitably manifests itself in using a large number of indicators;  the indicators data should be presented in international statistical databases collected for most of the world' s countries in a relatively long period (about 10 years or more). Of the most significant works on assessing the relationship of the level of development of innovation and indicators of socio-economic development one can distinguish the following ones [3,8,10,11,13,14,20,21]. In the work of [30] the dependence of the level of development of innovations on GDP (gross domestic product) per capita and labor productivity was studied, where, according to the results of correlation and regression analysis, their direct dependence was found, although for an indicator of social efficiency (using the Gini coefficient as an example) dependence is defined as significant only for countries lagging behind in innovative development.…”

Performance Method for Innovative Activity on the Achieved Level of the Country’s Socioeconomic Development

“…There are also cases of uncorrelated data in the distribution of countries to assess the effectiveness of Ri, but more often non-compliance with the general laws is due to objective reasons. For example, the low value of the Gini index for the United States is indeed contrary to the accepted logic of reasoning, but this is an exceptional case, which is confirmed by the perception of it as a serious problem [27,28]. The low value of the normalized value of GDP in China is due to the large population, and the high level of competitivenessa large number of technological industries, which employ a relatively small part of the working-age population.…”

Energy Saving and Clean Technology for Natural Gas Transporting

“…are leaders in research, development and production of electric gas-compressor stations [8,9]. Electric gas-compressor stations were widely adopted in Europe, America and the countries of the Asia-Pacific Region [6,7]. Let's review some examples of use of electric gas-compressor stations in the different countries.…”
