     Kondyor a perfectly circular mountain range in eastern Siberia. From areas like craters or crater of an extinct volcano but Kondyor Massif is neither. It is what geologists refer to as an "intrusion".


     An intrusion forms when molten magma of igneous rock crystallizes below the surface of the earth, and is slowly pushed up through the earth's mantle, a process that can take millions of years. As the rock slowly cools into a solid, the different parts of the magma crystallize into minerals. Because the magma solidify underground before they reach the surface of the crust, they are also called "plutons", in honor of the Roman god Pluto, the king of the underworld.


     Kondyor a diameter of about 10 kilometers from the ridge to a height of 600 meters Kondyor is unique not only because of its unusual structure. But for mineral veins within it - gold, silver, platinum and many other rare minerals.


     Kondyor Mountains are a major source of gold, and was the site of a large gold mine. Mining started here in 1984 and until 2011 the mine Kondyor has produced about 85 tonnes of gold, more outstanding features and mineral abnormalities of deposits is the presence of crystalline crude platinum alloy steel. coated with gold Kondor Mountains also have their own special mineral called Konderite mixture of copper, platinum, rhodium, lead and sulfur.
