Abstract

Biogeochemical tin province in the southern part of the Far East of Russia. P.V. IVASHOV (Khabarovsk Federal Research Center, FEB RAS, Khabarovsk; Institute of Water and Ecological Problems, FEB RAS, Khabarovsk).

The allocation of biogeochemical tin province in the basin of the Amur River in the Amur and Primorye territories of the south of the Far East of Russia was proved for the first time. Its formation is due to the location in the Far East Region the deposits and ore occurrences of tin and tin-containing rocks in the Pacific ore belt. Levels of tin in plants and soils established in landscapes with tin mineralization are proof of the existence of natural biogeochemical province of tin.
