The basis of this investigation is the petrographic and geochemical
understanding of principal igneous rock types of the Noril’sk
region, in order to demonstrate that these data provide unique and
self-evident solutions to the problems of petrogenesis and
mineralization. The results of the investigations are presented in
two volumes: the first includes mainly text and the second contains
illustrations. In the first volume, the state of the main problems
of the genesis of igneous rocks with reference to Traps and related
ore deposits is discussed, as well as short petrological
descriptions of igneous complexes in the region, the mineral and
geochemical diversity of the rocks, and aspects of the
differentiation of basaltic melts and mineralization are described.
Taking into account the vast number of publications on the
petrology of Traps of the Noril’sk region, primary attention in
the monograph is given to earlier unknown phenomena, as well as
other aspects that are of great importance for solving genetic
problems. Some exotic geologic targets such as the Mikchandinsky
differentiated cover, the magnetite lava flow of the Putorana
Plateau, the magmatogenic breccia of Kharaelakh and others are
described in detail. The second volume contains an atlas of Rock
Indications of igneous rock-types; formally identified reference
rocks from all igneous complexes of the region, as well as
photographs of thin sections of typical rocks and analytical tables
of rocks and minerals from the key sections of sedimentary units
and intrusions. Each rock type has been geochemically and
petrographically analysed thereby providing a formal identity,
complete with a photograph of the thin section. Photomicrographs of
the rocks in this book will be a useful aid in visualizing the
diversity of rock types in the Traps; each photograph reflecting a
unique combination of minerals.
