English abstract

Interest in volcanic tuffs has grown significantly in the world due to the discovery of zeolite tuff deposits with valuable sorption, cation exchange and other properties. The estimated resources of such zeolite-containing volcanic tuffs in the Rivne-Volyn region are hundreds of millions of tons, they are almost inexhaustible. The analysis of the tuff deposit and the results of geological research, according to Rivne and Kovel exploration expeditions, show that it is impossible to openly develop the deposit, as much of it is under productive privatized agricultural land and lands, and partly under forests belonging to protected area. The impossibility of open development is also due to excessive flooding of the territory and increasing the depth of tuff in the northern regions to 200 meters. Due to the widespread use of zeolite-smectite tuffs, the issue of using well hydro technology for their production is included in the state program for the development of mineral resources of Rivne region and recorded in it a separate item with some funding.
