Abstract
Summary The result of research shows the possibility of complex geological and geophysical research for structural mapping of ore-promising areas and detailed study of ore control complexes of copper bearing sandstones in the Zhezkazgan region in Central Kazakhstan. The structural and tectonic structure of ore districts has been studied; The localization and morphology of differentiated intrusive arrays at depth has been established; Deep ore-controlling faults have been detected and mapped, ore control structures have been isolated in sedimentary and effusive sedimentary folding complexes; defined the spatial position of individual ore zones. Considering the complicated geological structure of the ore region under study and the significant differentiation of the formation and ores, the identification of additional criteria for the localization of copper ore is possible only with the combination of geological and geophysical methods, detailed geochemical and physical-chemical studies of rocks and ores.
