These deposits can be classified into three major groups: the Streltsovstk district, which includes 19 volcanic caldera-related deposits where the mining of some deposits is ongoing, the Transural and Vitim districts where sandstone basal-channel type deposits are developed for uranium production by ISL mining and other uranium bearing districts containing numerous deposits of vein, volcanic and metasomatite types higher cost uranium resources that are planned to be mined.
