Abstract

The results of a study of the possibilities of extracting strategic metals (gold, platinum, silver, zirconium, titanium, etc.) from man-made placers and coal seam stripping rocks in the south of the Russian Far East are presented. The necessity of using methods of hydrodifluoride conversion, hydrometallurgy, fluoride opening to create an environmentally safe resource-saving technology for the enrichment of technogenic formations is substantiated. The data obtained open up new opportunities for revaluation of the prospects of the mineral resource base of Primorye.
