The results of a microminerological study of the material composition of rocks and ores of the Baktai gold deposit are presented. Central Kazakhstan is one of the key regions of the country with a high concentration of gold deposits of various genetic types. There are both long-exploited deposites (Zholymbet, Aksu, Maikayin) and promising but poorly explored deposites, especially in areas of deep faults and tectonic-magmatic activations. With the depletion of reserves of large deposits and the reorientation of subsurface users to identify new facilities, interest in new sources of industrial gold is increasing significantly. One of these gold mining facilities in the region is the Baktai deposit. The purpose of the study of this object is to study the paragenetic associations, the forms of gold discovery, the genesis of this deposit and, as a result, to determine its industrial value
