Abstract

The results of hydrogeochemical studies on the content of rare alkaline elements in man-made waters of mining facilities at Zavitinskoye, Orlovskoye, and Etykinskoye rare metal deposits of Eastern Transbaikalia are presented. Concentrations of these elements are determined both by the content in the ores and rocks of deposits and by their water-migration properties. It was found that the acidic sub-basement waters of the Orlovskoye and the quarry waters of the Zavitinskoye deposits contain abnormally high concentrations of lithium, up to 3.74 and 3.88 mg / L, respectively. The high content of lithium (Li) in the waters of these deposits was determined relative to the average values for the waters of the hypergenesis zone, as well as the standards of maximum permissible concentrations (MPC) of chemicals for water bodies used for fisheries, drinking water, and other activities.
