COPPER DISCOVERY IN U.S.S.R.
The
Soviet geologist, M. Oltzhersky, has discovered in the region of Vonessensk-Uchalinsky, 120 kilometres from the Miass-
Perm Railway, extensive deposits
of copper ore.
Preliminary computations estim- ate
these deposits at about 500,000,000 tons, with about 10,000,000 tons of pure copper con- tent.
They are undoubtedly the richest at present known in the world and exceed the known de-. posits in the Urals and Kazakstan.
