Mineral distribution in the deposit.
The Taymyrsky Dolgano-Nenetsky District was founded on April 10, 1930. Until January 1, 2007, it existed as Taymyr Autonomous Okrug, a federal subject of Russia. Taymyrsky Dolgano-Nenetsky District ) is an administrative and municipal district (raion), one of the forty-three in Krasnoyarsk Krai, Russia. Norilsk is directly under Krasnoyarsk Krai.
199 valid minerals. 39 (TL) - type locality of valid minerals. 1 (FRL) - first recorded locality of unapproved mineral/variety/etc.

Description: The plagioclase in the gabbro grades from labradorite (~An69) in the cores to andesine (~An39) in the rims. The close proximity of the core plagioclase composition to the labradorite-bytownite nomenclature boundary suggests that with a bit of additional searching, slightly more Ca-rich zones that would normalize to bytownite could likely be discovered.

Description: the olivine in the sample grades from a very Fe-rich forsterite (~Fo53) in the center of grains to low-Mg fayalite (~Fo16)in the outermost rims. Although the olivine "cores" are relatively equant, the more Fe-rich rims are wide and irregular.

Description: Occurs as isolated grains in the gabbro and seems indicative of assimilation of argillaceous and perhaps ferruginous country rocks during emplacement.
Description: Unclear whether this is sanidine or orthoclase, although it is high in Na (up to 0.27 apfu) and some material also contains notable Ba (0.5 wt%). Occurs as scattered anhedral grains in the gabbro and may be the result of some assimilation of argillaceous (pelitic) country rocks.
