APPLICATION OF THE PRINCIPLE OF METASOMATIC ZONES CORRELATION FOR APPRAISAL OF THE HYDROTHERMAL ORE DOPOSITS DEPTH TEMPERATURES

摘要

The paper carries out a study treating the general tendency in forming of the Kurilo-Kamchatsky region metasomatites as an indicator of the hydrothermal process vicissitude and the correlated thermal capacity of deposits. There has been revealed the 《principle of correlation》 for metasomatic zones, according to which the presence of the certain metasomatic alteration zones on the surface around an acting thermosource assumes the presence of the certain alteration zones at the depth of hydrothermal system. By using these ratios, it is possible to appraise the hydrothermal resources of natural heating agents and, by this appraisal, to decrease the risk of the following quite expensive hole drilling.
