80 years of study use and control of natural resources

VIMS today:

  • new methods of prediction, prospecting and valuation of deposits for various solid useful minerals, highly effective technologies of their mining, dressing and processing;
  • geological-and-economic valuation of mineral raw materials potential of large regions under modern legal and economic conditions;
  • Complex valuation of units on different stages of geological prospecting works.
  • examination of geological and technological approaches in mining and processing of mineral products in the system of the State Municipal Technical Supervision of Russian Federation on working mining-extractive enterprises;
  • State Standard Body of RF for accreditation of analytical laboratories, Federal Centre of MNR of Russia for laboratory study of rocks, minerals and ores, products of beneficiation, concentrates, metals and alloys, the second raw material, industrial waste, soils, grounds, bottom sediments, potable, natural waters and sewage;
  • Search of untraditional fields for using mineral products, creation and production new generation of sorbents and filter medium.
