Advanced geological modeling of coastal–marine cassiterite placers based on data on deposits in Russia’S Eastern Arctic Region
A mathematical model of coastal–marine tin placers formed in the alongshore drift flow is developed using the mass balance method. The physical meaning of the coefficients included in the model is considered. Coastal–marine placers are quantitatively estimated. The simulation adequacy is confirmed b...

Zusammenfassung: | A mathematical model of coastal–marine tin placers formed in the alongshore drift flow is developed using the mass balance method. The physical meaning of the coefficients included in the model is considered. Coastal–marine placers are quantitatively estimated. The simulation adequacy is confirmed by the data on coastal–marine tin-bearing placer deposits at the Pevek ore cluster (Chaun Bay, East Siberian Sea). We suggest that the obtained equations be used for surveying and exploration. Identified patterns are used to estimate the tin placer potential in one of the coastal areas in the Eastern Arctic Basin. |
