Abstract

The elemental and mineral composition of loose sediments from the Kan-i-Gut mine-cave (Central Asia) was compared. The obtained concentrations of Mn, Fe, and Zn agree with the minerals determined in the composition of samples from the middle and lower horizons. Increased concentrations of Y, as well as the correlation of this element with As in the researched samples were revealed, which gives grounds to assume the presence of yttrium arsenates in the loose formations. The mineral associations found in the mine-cave indicate the formation of the original karst cavity during sulfuric acid speleogenesis. The mineral gergeite was identified in this site for the first time.
