Know: Optical and physical properties of ore minerals, principles of appropriate selection of mineralogical analysis methods for determining of ore genesis, industrial evaluation and practical use of ores, diagnostics of main types of textures and structures. Be able to: Use methods of studying ores under a microscope. Have practical skills in working with in-struments and equipment used for the diagnostics of ore minerals. Determine the qualitative and quantitative mineral composition of ores, their textural and structural features, the genetic type of ores and features that may affect the choice of a rational method of exploration, development and en-richment of such ores.

Students have to take a course of "Basic of Petrography", "Mineralogy and crystallography".

To familiarize students with the classification of ore minerals and methods of their diagnostics in re-flected light. The lecture material is focused on understanding the general basics of crystal optics, optical, physical and chemical properties of the most common ore minerals. Laboratory classes will form in students practical skills in working with equipment for diagnosing ore minerals, determining the mineral composition and genesis of ores, identifying opportunities for the integrated use of ores and developing schemes for waste-free technologies and increasing the extraction of useful compo-nents from ores.

Lectures, practical classes, independent student work

The results of students' learning activities are evaluated on a 100-point scale. The total grade is based on the results of the student's work throughout the semester in laboratory work and final assessment. The final score consists of points for systematic work during the semester and points obtained as a result of the final assessment in the test form. For laboratory work, the student may receive a maximum of 80 points (a minimum 48). The final evaluation will be conducted as the test: a maximum score of 20 points, a marginal score of 12 points. During the test, the student must show a high level of theoretical knowledge regarding the classification, physical and optical properties of main ore minerals and prac-tical skills in their diagnosis. Final test assessment is not obligatory, if you refuse to participate in this form of assessment, then you will not receive the appropriate points to the final score.
