Chromium ore reserves in Ukraine

The main consumers of chromium are the metallurgical industry, the production of ferrochrome and refractories, and the chemical industry.

Ukraine has nine manifestations of its own chromium mineral resource base.

The prospective and forecast resources of this type of mineral have been estimated in the Pobuzhsky ore district, within the Kapitanivsky ore field, in which, in addition to native ores, a new geological and industrial type has been discovered in recent years: complex chromium-nickel ores in weathering crusts and mineralization of metallic rhenium.

In addition, it is known that ultramafic rocks are accompanied by gold-platinum-bearing mineralization, the study of which may result in the discovery of new types of deposits.

To increase the mineral and raw material base of chrome ores, it is planned to conduct exploration and exploration and evaluation works at the most promising sites of the Kapitanivka ore field.
