Foreign cooperation of the Polish Geological Institute: critical raw materials reconnaissance project in Mongolia

Poland and Mongolia have established a geological partnership focusing on the recognition of critical raw materials. The cooperation is significant, given the urgent demand for minerals and metals necessary for advancing new technologies. The three-year joint project implemented in cooperation between the Polish Geological Institute - National Research Institute and the National Geological Survey of Mongolia involves geological reconnaissance of three areas in western Mongolia for exploration for tungsten, molybdenum and other strategic metals. The surveillance is mainly focused on outcrops of Permian granitoids and their metamorphic cover, located on the southwestern margin of the Khangai Mountains. The scope of work includes analysis of archival data, field geological and geochemical reconnaissance with sampling, laboratory testing and interpretation of results. The project aims to identify the potential of research areas for critical and strategic raw materials
