Abstract

Relevance of the study of new structural forms of carbon and their properties; as well as existing geological problems of ancient carbon explain relentless scientific interest in shungite carbon of Russia ("Zazhegino" deposit) during the third century. In the 70s of the last century; geologists have discovered this form of carbon also in Kazakhstan - in Bakyrchik gold mine in East Kazakhstan region. Shungites of various deposits are characterized by structural similarity and the difference in bulk morphology; which causes comparisons of supramolecular structures of shungites of Karelia and Bakyrchik deposit. Physico-chemical characteristics of shugite rocks of "Bakyrchik" and "Zazhogino" were studied using the methods of Raman spectroscopy and X-ray phase analysis. The structure of shungite carbon was shown by the method of Raman scattering to be close to that of glassy carbon. The results of X-ray diffraction analysis (XRD) of natural shungite rocks showed that the samples under study contained a carbonaceous substance and a number of mineral components: quartz; illite; bassanite; burgerite; muscovite.
