The sector possesses the capacity to model highly distinct, co-existing magmatic and hydrothermal ore systems by tracking fluid-rock evolution across varying crustal depths.
The Mineral Resources and Metallogeny Sector at the Institute of Geology of the Mongolian Academy of Sciences (MAS) serves as the country’s leading authority on advanced metallogenic modeling. By investigating the complex accretionary frameworks of the Central Asian Orogenic Belt (CAOB), the sector bridges traditional fieldwork with modern geochemical, isotopic, and data-driven methods, directly enhancing our understanding of how major geodynamic events have shaped the concentration of Mongolia's key ore systems. The institutional leadership and specific sector management driving these initiatives are anchored by Dr. Turbold Sukhbaatar, who holds a PhD focused on tectonics, geodynamics, structural geology, and petrology with research specializing in the accretionary evolution of the CAOB and the targeting of Mongolian critical metals, and Dr. Ariunzaya Tsogoo, who is armed with a PhD in the physical and chemical sciences and directly oversees the sector's operational focus, leading the academic team tasked with modeling REE mineralization, copper-porphyry networks, and the landmark PGE genetic modeling project.
