OREANDA-NEWS. Specialists of JSC "Geokarta-Perm" (part of the State holding company "Rosgeologia") put together and prepared an original and modern geological basis with scale 1: 200 000 for Novovilvensk site in Perm Krai (GDP-200 of sheet O-40-XI).

Geologic maps of Pre-Quaternary and Quaternary formations, minerals and their location patterns were compiled. The borders of Yayvinsky, Pashiysky and Verhnekoyvinsky diamond areas were defined. A database and summary of deposits, occurrences, mineralization points, placer samples and geochemical anomalies were compiled.

"We gave a preliminary assessment of the projected resources of indigenous native gold, diamonds and platinoids of Novovilvensk site,” says leading geologist of Nizhneusvinsky geological party of JSC "Geokarta-Perm” Lyubov Maltseva. “As we expected, this is a promising area. We have prepared documents for the objects of particular interest.”

Copyright protection of the original set of maps was approved by VSEGEI, and reports were forwarded for verification to the Perm Territorial Fund of Geological Information. And now we are getting ready for the next operational phase - preparation of copyright maps for the publication. Exploration of Novovilvensk site (S = 4268.4 km2) is conducted in the framework of the State project on creation of geological maps of the new second generation (GDP-200) in digital electronic format. Last time this territory was mapped in 1984-1988.

The works are carried out under the State contract No. 03/2012-G dated 06.04.2012 at the request of Rosnedr. The company obtained the rights to conduct the works based on the results of the respective tender.
