Abstract
To assess the fundamental possibility of the formation of deposits of high-quality bauxites by mechanogenic sedimentary methods, continental deposits in the extreme members of their facies series were studied: eluvial deposits on the surface of the bovaly, representing the region of mobilization of matter; alluvial deposits that underwent transfer and the most significant sorting in continental conditions. It is shown that these deposits do not produce high-quality bauxite deposits, even under uniquely favorable conditions, and the mechanogenic-sedimentary process does not provide the conditions for the spatial separation of aluminum with iron and silica, without which high-quality bauxite deposits cannot be formed.
