Krasnoyarsk Territory is the second largest subject of the Russian Federation, occupying 2366.8 thousand square meters. km (or 13.86% of the country's territory). Krasnoyarsk Territory is part of the Siberian Federal District. In the east, the region borders on the Republic of Sakha (Yakutia) and the Irkutsk region, in the south - on the Republic of Tyva and the Republic of Khakassia, in the west - on the Kemerovo and Tomsk regions, as well as on the Khanty-Mansi and Yamalo-Nenets autonomous okrugs.

The Krasnoyarsk Territory was formed on December 7, 1934 by a resolution of the Presidium of the All-Russian Central Executive Committee (VTsIK) of the RSFSR. The region includes 31 districts, the Khakass Autonomous Region, the Taimyr and Evenki national districts. The city of Krasnoyarsk became the center. The region was formed almost within the boundaries of the former Yenisei province, its area was over two million square kilometers.

In 1991, the Khakass Autonomous Region seceded from the region and formed an independent subject of the Russian Federation - the Republic of Khakassia. Two autonomous okrugs became independent subjects of the Russian Federation: Taimyr (Dolgano-Nenets) and Evenki, although they were territorially part of the region.

In 2007, as a result of a referendum, the region included two autonomous okrugs - Evenki and Taimyr (Dolgano-Nenets), which were transformed into municipal districts with a special status. The day of the referendum - April 17 - has been declared a holiday in the region - Unity Day.

GEOGRAPHICAL POSITION

The Krasnoyarsk Territory is located mainly within Eastern Siberia, in the Yenisei River basin. Along the left bank of the Yenisei there is a low-lying valley, and along the right bank there is the Central Siberian Plateau, the height of which reaches 500-700 m above sea level. In the north, the region is washed by the Kara Sea and the Laptev Sea.

The length of the territory from the north to the mountainous regions of Southern Siberia is almost 3000 km. The geographical center of Russia is located on the territory of the region in the vicinity of Lake Vivi in ​​Evenkia. In addition, on the territory of the region there is Cape Chelyuskin - the northernmost point of mainland Russia and all of Asia. The Krasnoyarsk Territory includes the Severnaya Zemlya archipelago, the islands of Nordenskiöld, Vilkitsky, Sibiryakov, Dikson, etc.

The relief of the Krasnoyarsk Territory is varied. Over a large stretch of the northern part, the Yenisei River carved out a valley at the junction of two tectonic structures. From the right bank to the river valley, the Central Siberian Plateau and the Yenisei Ridge, composed of ancient rocks, descend in ledges. On the left bank of the river is the West Siberian Lowland, which in the north meets the vast Yenisei-Khatanga Lowland, which occupies part of the Taimyr Peninsula. The south of the region is occupied by mountains and intermountain depressions of the Altai-Sayan mountainous country. The Central Siberian Plateau is composed of sandstones, limestones, limestones, shale, coal, which in many places are covered by magmatic outpourings - traps. In the northwestern part of the plateau rises the Putorana plateau, the heights of which in some places exceed 1600 m, and the highest point is Mount Kamen - 1701 m.

The eastern part of the West Siberian Lowland is located on the left bank of the Yenisei. It was repeatedly covered by glaciers, so the terrain is mostly flat and hilly, there are many lakes, swamps and rivers.

The Central Siberian Lowland occupies most of the Taimyr Peninsula. Hills and ridges up to 12 m high stretch far away. In the north of the peninsula, from the Yenisei Gulf to the Laptev Sea, stretch the low Byrranga Mountains, the average height of which is 400-600 m.

In the southern part of the region rise the ridges of the Eastern and Western Sayans and the Kuznetsk Alatau. At the foot of the ridges lies the famous Minusinsk Basin, where the climatic conditions are favorable. The Eastern Sayan begins a little west of the city of Krasnoyarsk and runs in the southeast to the mountains of Transbaikalia. This vast mountainous region consists of many mountain ranges, depressions and high plateaus. There are several flat-topped ridges up to 900 m high, which are called “Belogorya” - Manskoye, Kanskoye, Pezinskoye and others. The name "Belogorye" comes from Russian pioneers, who called it that way in the 17th century. "mountains covered with snow in summer." There are many karst and speleological areas in the Eastern Sayan Mountains. Today, on the territory of the region, the largest number of caves in the country is recorded - about 150, among them is the longest cave in Russia, Bolshaya Oreshnaya, with a length of over 50 km.

The Western Sayan stretches on the southern border of the Krasnoyarsk Territory for more than 650 km. It consists of many ridges - Ergaki, Sayansky, Kurtushibinsky, Tazarama, Dzhebashsky, Aradansky, etc.) and ancient alignment surfaces. In the southwest stretches the Kuznetsk Alatau, separating the Minusinsk depression from the Kuznetsk depression.

CLIMATE

The region is divided into arctic, subarctic and temperate climatic zones. Due to the large extent of the region, the climate of the region is very heterogeneous. The average January temperature ranges from -36 0 C in the north to -18 0 C in the south, the average July temperature ranges from +13 0 C in the north to +20+25 0 C in the south.

The region is divided into northern, central, southern, western and eastern climatic regions. The climate of the northern part is especially harsh. The long, harsh winter is accompanied by strong winds and high humidity. The cool northern summer is very short. On the Taimyr Peninsula there is practically no frost-free period - almost every day the air temperature can drop to zero or below degrees. In the flat central region, the climate is characterized by relatively hot and short summers, long cold winters, and significant temperature fluctuations. The southern part of the region has warm summers and moderate winters. Dry and clean air, plenty of sunny days, healing waters create favorable climatic conditions for treatment and relaxation. The western part of the region receives more precipitation.

The northernmost, island part of the region is occupied by a zone of ice and arctic deserts. In terms of relief, it is a hilly-ridge plain. The tundra and forest-tundra zone is 1000-1200 km wide and includes the Taimyr Peninsula and the Byrranga mountain region. The typical tundra has a hilly topography with many lakes. The taiga zone occupies a significant part of the territory of the region. A typical steppe is located in the south of the region and occupies most of the Minusinsk depression and the Chulym-Yenisei basin.

Agriculture in the region is possible up to approximately the latitude of Yeniseisk, and to the north - only in patches.

The region contains the main reserves of platinum and platinoids, copper-nickel ores, the main deposits of which are located in the north of the region, including on the Taimyr Peninsula. The Norilsk mining region (Norilsk-1, Oktyabrskoye and Talnakhskoye deposits) is world famous, where copper, nickel, cobalt, and platinum are mined.

There are 33 hydrocarbon deposits in the region. The region's largest oil and gas fields are located in the Turukhansky and Taimyr (Dolgano-Nenets) regions - these are the fields of the Vankor group (Vankorskoye, Suzunskoye, Tagulskoye, etc.) and in the south of the Evenkiy district - the fields of the Yurubcheno-Tokhomsky zone (Yurubchenskoye, Kuyumbinskoye, Sobinskoye, Paiginskoye, Imbinskoe, Beryambinskoe, etc.).

The region holds a leading position in Russia in terms of total geological coal reserves - about 70%, which are concentrated in the Kansko-Achinsk, Tunguska, Taimyr and Minusinsk coal basins. The reserves of the Kansk-Achinsk brown coal basin, unique in terms of its economic-geographical location and reserves, located along the Trans-Siberian Railway, are being most actively developed.

In terms of the overall gold potential and gold mining, the region is traditionally one of the leaders in the Russian Federation - about 300 primary and placer deposits have been explored in the region. The main developed gold reserves are concentrated in the North Yenisei and Motyginsky districts (Olympiadinskoye, Blagodatnoye, Eldorado, Vasilyevskoye, etc.).

The Angara-Yenisei province (Yenisei Ridge and the adjacent Siberian Platform) and the Lower Angara region are rich in bauxite and nepheline ores for aluminum production, as well as iron ores, which are in the state reserve.

The territory of the Lower Angara region occupies a leading position in Russia in terms of magnesite reserves, concentrated in large deposits. On the territory of the region, the Gorevskoye deposit of polymetals is being developed - unique not only in terms of reserves, but also in terms of lead and zinc content (up to 6% and higher lead in the ore). Silver, cadmium and other metals are simultaneously extracted from lead-zinc ores.

Among the non-metallic minerals in the region, deposits of fluxing limestone, table salt, talc, graphite, refractory and refractory clays, apatite, vermiculite and molding materials, as well as building materials are being developed.

WATER RESOURCES

The Krasnoyarsk Territory is the richest region in Russia in terms of water resources. From north to south, the region is crossed by the Yenisei River - the most abundant river in the country. The waters of the Yenisei have a warming and desalinating effect on the Kara Sea, which washes the northern territories of the region along with the Laptev Sea. The most striking feature of the northern seas is the year-round presence of ice.

Every year, the rivers of the region pour about 20% of the total flow of Russian rivers into the northern seas. The river network of the Krasnoyarsk Territory includes more than 150 thousand rivers and streams. The largest river is the Yenisei. It is formed from the confluence of the Big Yenisei (Biy-Khem) and the Small Yenisei (Ka-Khem). In Kyzyl, at the site of their confluence, there is an obelisk “Center of Asia”. The Yenisei with its numerous tributaries, as well as the Pyasina, Taimyr, Khatanga rivers, flowing into the Kara Sea and the Laptev Sea, form a natural transport system. The Mana, Tuba, Kazyr and Kizir, Amyl, Kan, Biryusa, Podkamennaya Tunguska, Nizhnyaya Tunguska, Angara, Chulym, Ket, Kem and others flow through the region. The rivers have huge reserves of cheap hydropower - the Krasnoyarsk and Ust-Khantayskaya hydroelectric power stations operate in the region Hydroelectric power station, Kureyskaya hydroelectric power station, Enashiminskaya hydroelectric power station. In this regard, the region is an energy-rich territory. With the commissioning of the Boguchanskaya HPP, the capacity of the region’s energy facilities increased by 35%, and at the beginning of 2016 it amounted to 18.1 GW.

The rivers connect the northern regions of the region with Krasnoyarsk - the industrial and transport center of Central Siberia, and through the Yenisei the region has access to the Northern Sea Route. In the lower reaches of the Yenisei there are the ports of Igarka and Dudinka, equipped to receive sea vessels. Navigation in the north is possible only in the summer, but when accompanied by icebreakers it is possible all year round. The ports of Krasnoyarsk and Lesosibirsk, located in the middle reaches of the Yenisei, allow the entry of river-sea class vessels.

There are many lakes in the region - there are more than three hundred thousand of them. Lake Taimyr is the largest lake in the north. Most of the lakes are located in the southwest of the region - in the Sharypovsky district, as well as in the south - in the Minusinsk depression. Lakes Tagarskoye, Uchum, Bolshoye, Krugloye, Plakhino, Ingol and others are popular among tourists in the summer.

It has already become a tradition in the region to hold days of national cultures, folk art festivals, and cultural events.

Every year, large cultural projects are implemented in the municipalities of the region, such as the cultural and educational route "Yenisei Express", "Cultural Capital of Krasnoyarsk", a film forum of domestic films in Nazarovo, dedicated to the legendary Soviet theater and film actress, People's Artist of the USSR Marina Ladynina. The Shushensky district of the Krasnoyarsk Territory annually hosts the world-famous international festival of ethnic music and crafts "WORLD OF Siberia".

TOURISM

The region has enormous recreational resources, which makes it possible to develop almost all types of tourism: reindeer and dog sled safaris, ecotourism, equestrian tourism, cross-country and ski trips, and sanatorium and resort treatment. Today, in the region, well-known sanatorium-resort complexes throughout the country successfully heal their guests: “Sosnovy Bor” on Lake Tagarskoye, “Shushensky” on the banks of the mountain river Oya, “Lake Uchum”, “Krasnoyarsk Zagorye” in the foothills of the Western Sayan Mountains.

Beach holidays are represented by the most popular places on the coast of the Krasnoyarsk Sea - Balakhtinsky, Krasnoturansky, Novoselovsky, Shumikhinsky Bay near the Krasnoyarsk Hydroelectric Power Station.

Hunting and fishing, cultural, educational and pilgrimage tourism, business and event tourism are in great demand (All-Russian festival of folk culture "Siberian Maslenitsa", Kansky Video Festival, "Yenisei Ukha" holiday, Yenisei August Fair, Minusinsk Tomato Day, All-Russian festival "Vysotsky and Siberia", International Festival of Ethnic Music and Crafts "WORLD of Siberia", exhibitions, forums, etc.).

OIL AND GAS

Within the territory of the Krasnoyarsk Territory, in whole or in part, there are 12 oil and gas bearing areas of three oil and gas bearing provinces – West Siberian, Khatanga-Vilyui, and Leno-Tunguska Established recoverable oil resources amount to 8.3 billion tons, natural gas – 24.2 trillion. m3 and condensate – 1.6 billion tons.
Within the West Siberian province, five oil and gas fields have been discovered in the region - Suzunskoe, Lodochnoye (oil - 43 million tons, gas -70 billion tons) , Tagulskoe (oil - 53 million tons, gas -37 billion tons) , Vankorskoe (oil - 125 million tons, gas -77 billion tons) .
Six hydrocarbon deposits have been identified on the territory of the Leno-Tunguska province - Kuyumbinskoe (oil - 515 million tons, gas -124 billion tons), Yurubcheno-Takhomskoe (oil - 267 million tons, gas -534 billion tons) , Omorinskoye, Sobinskoye (oil - 75 million tons, gas -158 billion tons) , Paiginskoe (oil - 20 million tons, gas -8.8 billion tons) and Agaleevskoe (gas -30 billion tons) .
Gas gases have been identified within the Khatanga-Vilyui province Dzhangodskoe, Zimneye, Messoyakha, Nizhnekhetskoe, Khabeiskoe, Balakhninskoe and gas condensate - Deryabinskoye, Kazantsevskoye, Nanadyanskoye, Ozernoye, Pelyatkinskoye, Severo-Soleninskoye, Ushakovskoye Place of Birth. Installed here Payakhskoye, Ilimskoye, Kozhevnikovskoye and Nordvikskoye oil fields.
In addition to several gas condensate fields that meet the needs of the Norilsk plant ( Messoyakha, Pelyatinskoe ), production is carried out only in oil fields Yurubchenskoye field in Evenkia.

Currently, the construction of mini refineries for on-site processing of oil and condensate is widely used. 4 such plants were built in the Krasnoyarsk Territory - at Kuyumbinsky, Paiginsky, Yurubchensky deposits of a mini refinery for oil refining and in Dudinka a mini refinery for condensate processing. However, only two actually operate - Paiginsky and Dudinsky.

COAL
The Krasnoyarsk Territory contains about 40% of Russia's qualified coal resources and almost 25% of proven reserves. The total coal reserves in the region amount to more than 4 trillion tons. They are concentrated in four coal basins - Taimyr, Tunguska and Kansk-Achinsk. Hard coals make up 85%, brown coals – about 14%, anthracites – less than 1.4% of all coal reserves.

The Kansk-Achinsk basin is one of the largest in the world, located in the Krasnoyarsk Territory (80%), Kemerovo and Irkutsk regions. The coal-bearing deposits of the basin are an excellent energy fuel, raw material for the chemical industry, the production of liquid motor and boiler fuel, and the production of artificial combustible gas by underground gasification.

The Kansk-Achinsk basin is the largest base for the coal and chemical industries of Russia. Its potential capabilities allow it to produce 1 billion tons of coal per year. Huge coal resources (over 140 billion tons), along with favorable conditions for open-pit mining and relatively low ash content (14%), allow us to consider this coal basin as the most promising fuel base for the Russian energy industry. 38% of all proven coal reserves in the country suitable for open-pit mining are concentrated here. The industrial coal content of the basin is associated with Jurassic deposits. The area of ​​coal deposits is 60 thousand km2. Mining is carried out at 3 large and a number of small coal mines. Total power Borodinsky, Nazarovsky and Berezovsky-1 open pit production is up to 100 million tons per year. Three small cuts - Pereyaslovsky, Balakhtinsky and Abansky supply fuel to rural areas. Prepares for industrial development Sayano-Partizanskoye field hard coals (reserves 1 billion tons).

Tunguska basin occupies an area of ​​about 1 million km2. In terms of potential resources, it is the largest in the world, but its remote location in hard-to-reach areas has led to its poor exploration, especially in the northern part. Within the basin, 48 coal deposits are known, located at a great distance from each other. Kayerkanskoye field (Norilsk) (open-pit mining). The deposit supplies coal to the Norilsk MMC and nearby settlements. Operated for local needs Kotuyskoye field (324 million tons). On Noginskoye field (6.4 million tons) construction of a mine is planned. On the southern edge of the Tunguska basin is Kokuyskoye field (Motyginsky district). It is developed in an open way.
Taimyr coal basin poorly studied. Several deposits have been identified ( Chernoyarskoye, Pyasinskoye, Peasantskoye, Syrdasaiskoye ), but none of them have been explored in detail.

For people who are not closely familiar with the Krasnoyarsk Territory, this area is associated primarily with the endless Siberian expanses, huge rivers and, of course, the Tunguska meteorite. The main river of this territory is the Yenisei, which serves as a natural border dividing Siberia into Western and Eastern. Based on this, we can say that the Krasnoyarsk Territory is Central Siberia.

Huge riches of a vast territory

We can briefly evaluate the Krasnoyarsk Territory: mining is a city-forming factor here. The territory of the region is huge, it makes up almost fourteen percent of the area of ​​Russia, which is much larger than most states on the planet. But this area is practically uninhabited. The southern part of the region is populated and, locally, there are places where minerals are extracted. But with the reserves of the earth's subsoil in the Krasnoyarsk Territory, everything is in perfect order. More than ten thousand deposits and ore occurrences of various mineral resources have been discovered here. The Krasnoyarsk Territory is rich in metals: out of seventy known metals, deposits of sixty-three have been found. And deposits of nickel and platinum group metals account for almost ninety-five percent of all-Russian reserves. Nickel-containing polymetallic ores are the most famous minerals of the Krasnoyarsk Territory. Photos of them are presented in the article.

More than twenty percent of gold-bearing ores in Russia are located within the region. In addition, there are significant deposits of quite rare cobalt and nepheline ores. Magnesites, Iceland spar, thin quartzite sands, refractory clays and graphite were also found here. Large coal reserves are developed mainly in two coal basins - Kansk-Achinsk and Tunguska.

The region is rich in oil and gas deposits. A total of twenty-five fields have been discovered, the largest of which is Vankorskoye, as well as the Yurubchensky block. Lead deposits of one of the largest deposits in the world - Gorevsky - account for more than forty percent of all-Russian reserves. The Meimecha-Kotui apatite province is rich in apatite raw materials, where over twenty percent of all apatite in the country is concentrated. The largest Chuktukon deposit of rare earth metals in Russia is promising. In the near future, the development of deposits of manganese, aluminum and

Coal resources

In terms of the presence of the main twenty-three species, the Krasnoyarsk Territory ranks first in Russia. Fossils related to fuel and energy (coal, oil, gas) are of overwhelming value, followed by deposits of ferrous and non-ferrous metals and, finally, reserves of rare and precious metals. You should consider these resources in more detail.

The region's geological coal reserves account for seventy percent of all-Russian reserves. The bulk of the more than one hundred coal deposits in the region are located in the Kansk-Achinsk coal basin. The remaining deposits are part of the Tunguska, Taimyr and Minussa basins. Minerals of this type in the Krasnoyarsk Territory are estimated at seventy-five billion tons. Given current production volumes, the resources are considered virtually inexhaustible; they will last for a millennium. The increased development of Kansk-Achinsk coal compared to other regions is explained by the location of this basin next to the Trans-Siberian Railway.

Hydrocarbons

Mineral resources of the Krasnoyarsk Territory, rich in hydrocarbons, number more than twenty deposits. Most of them are considered large. The largest hydrocarbon deposits are located in the fields of the Vankor group, which belong to the Turukhansky and Taimyr regions, as well as in the fields of the Yurubcheno-Takhomsky zone in the southern part of Evenkia.

Proven oil reserves in the region are almost one and a half billion tons, and gas reserves are almost two trillion cubic meters. At the current rate of production, oil will last for twenty years, and gas, like coal, will last for a whole millennium.

Sixty-six deposits of ferrous and non-ferrous metals have huge reserves. Iron ore reserves are estimated at more than four billion tons. The content of lead and zinc in the depths of the Krasnoyarsk Territory is estimated at several million tons, and copper-nickel ores at tens of millions of tons. When answering the question of what minerals are mined in the Krasnoyarsk Territory, I would immediately like to mention nickel.

But besides this, copper, cobalt, and platinum are mined in the world-famous Norilsk mining region. a lot too. The mineral resources of the Krasnoyarsk Territory, contained in fifteen polymetallic deposits, number tens of thousands of tons. There is cobalt, niobium, selenium, cadmium and other metals. with the adjacent Siberian platform, in addition to gold, it is rich in deposits of bauxite and nepheline ores - raw materials for the production of aluminum. A unique content of lead and zinc was discovered in the Gorevsky polymetallic deposit - more than six percent. In addition, other metals, including silver, are extracted from the same ores. For example, silver reserves in the Krasnoyarsk Territory alone amount to fifteen thousand tons.

There are more than three hundred deposits. The main deposits of platinum group metals are concentrated in the northern regions.

Edge gold

Gold mining is carried out in more than one hundred countries around the world. In terms of its production volumes, Russia is in fifth place, although in terms of the volume of explored reserves it is in third place. A fifth of Russian gold reserves come from minerals in the Krasnoyarsk Territory. Gold has been explored in three hundred deposits here. The leading place among them belongs to the deposits located on the Yenisei Ridge. The unofficial capital of the region's gold miners is located in the North Yenisei region.

Another place for gold deposits are deposits of polymetallic ores near Norilsk and in the Taimyr-Severozemelsky regions. There are small placers of the precious metal in small northern rivers, but mining it is not economically profitable. And given the fact that all known gold deposits have been in development for decades, the resource base is narrowing.

Nonmetals

The reserves of non-metallic minerals in the depths of the Krasnoyarsk land are sufficient for hundreds of years of active production. In more than 100 deposits of the region, fluxing limestone, graphite, apatite, refractory and refractory clays, quartz and molding sand are mined. Graphite deposits are important for the economy of the entire country. It is mined mainly in the Noginskoye and Kureyskoye deposits. The Popigai ring structure in the northern regions of the region is rich in unique deposits of industrial diamonds. These deposits have very high potential and are under development. The region has explored deposits of jadeite and jade. In addition, peridots, quartzites and tourmaline were found here. In the region's bins there are reserves of amber and datolite, serpentine and marble onyx.

Construction minerals and mineral waters

Minerals and construction materials are mined in the Krasnoyarsk Territory. Their reserves, like other minerals, are very significant, but are lost against the background of metal and energy deposits. But here the extraction of building and facing stones, construction sand and crushed stone, gypsum and many other building materials is carried out.

There are more than three hundred deposits of these minerals in the region. Granite and limestone are mined literally near Krasnoyarsk. Against this background, the presence of twelve deposits with saturated groundwater in the Krasnoyarsk Territory is practically unnoticeable. Active operation is carried out in three: Kozhanovsky, Nanzhulsky and Tagarsky.

The future of oil in the region

The share of proven oil reserves in relation to Russia in the region is slightly more than one percent. But the future of oil in the region looks rosy. On the Taimyr Peninsula this is a deposit at Cape Nordvik. The entire left bank of the Yenisei to...
