Слово встречается в следующем контексте:

открыт комплекс по переработке песков техногенного месторождения и тонкозернистых апатит-штафелитовых руд

И ещё = идеи по поводу "техногенного" в этом контексте?

"industrial, production?"

Заранее спасибо

A human-made deposit что, так трудно прогуглить?

Multitran almost always suffices but is blank on this.

Does anyone else have any actual knowledge about this word?

Judging by the composition of the contributors, I hardly think it is wise to be insulting native English speakers and driving them away from the forum.

Igor's comments certainly didn't motivate me much to contribute my knowledge here.

human-made deposit is tailing dumps from previous benefeciation cycles that, with growing commodity prices, become themselves a commercial deposit.

Excuse my manner. I mistook you for a Russian speaker who should know where to find your queries but is so lazy as to prefer to milk the experts.

I'm a legal translator, and MT is better than the expensive dictionaries I have on my shelf. However, sometimes I do have to deal with technical terminology as part of a business document.

The technical dictionaries aren't to be found out here on the fine prairie country of Nebraska. I need to get some when I'm in Russia again.

Best regards,

Tom

I'm a geology/minerals translator, but sometimes I have to translate whole laws on mining, etc., so my position in this sense is similar to yours, Tom.

Cheers,
Igor

I also see they are unavailable on Ozon - несправедливо! А сколько примерно они вааще стоит там, если найдешь, или у издателя - не знаешь, случайно?

I bought a business and finance dictionary for $250 and find it to be pretty much useless - Multitran more helpful.

Are Timofeev/Alekseev worth the investment?
