Mineralogical composition of the Santonian deposits of the North Konimekh deposit in Uzbekistan

The article presents information about the results of studying the material composition, mineralogy and geochemistry of deposits formed in the Upper Cretaceous (K2) Santon strata of the North Konimekh uranium deposit located in the Kyzylkum region. Prospecting, appraisal and exploration at the North Konimekh uranium mine is an urgent problem, as it is in the focus of attention of many researchers. This article provides extensive information on underground alkalization, one of the methods for extracting uranium raw materials. Currently, it is emphasized that this method is convenient, has high financial efficiency in the extraction of uranium raw materials, and is also one of the cheapest and most effective methods.
