Sources and Forms of Metals Accumulation in Coal-Bearing Deposits of the Southern Primorye: Validation of the “Granite-Water” Model

Abstract

The work deals with the role of Paleozoic granites as possible sources of metals in coals. The process of dissolution and transfer of metals in the system “granite-water” was modeled. It is shown that the scale of accumulation of ore matter in water depends on the duration of interaction between water and rock. As a result of physical and chemical modeling, the probable set of migration forms of components and their transformations were calculated. The results of modeling indicate in favor of the assumption that the studied leucocratic granites of the pre-Cenozoic basement could be a source of metals concentrated in the coals of the Rakovka depression.
