Lake Shira slabs. Khakassia

The first time who raised this topic with the unusualness of these plates is Gennady Dmitrievich Kovalenko, Associate Professor of the Siberian State Aerospace University.

The article LAYERED STONES OF LAKE BELO. KHAKASIYAtalked about the mysterious slabs located on the western shore of the lake. Then these slabs seemed strange to me because of the presence of even cracks dividing them, as it were, into blocks.

The site is striking, first of all, by an unnatural network of cracks. But are they cracks? It's more like stacking blocks, creating an area. I suggest looking in more detail.

Allegedly, the cracks are strictly parallel, and the transverse ones do not continue to the adjacent row, they intersect only one layer of "masonry".

The site goes into the water

At first glance, it seems that this flagstone is so cracked. But this is not so - these are separate plates. The slab is composed of many layers of petrified silt (or red clay). And if each layer cracked, the crack could not go so smoothly. A vertical crack would necessarily be broken. So these are cast blocks? Maybe. And below I will repeat my proofs from the previous article about these places.

The first time who raised this topic with the unusualness of these plates is Gennady Dmitrievich Kovalenko, Associate Professor of the Siberian State Aerospace University. Here are excerpts from

descriptions of his expeditions

2007 and 2012: Inspection of the southwest coast showed that the coast is lined with rectangular slabs. The purpose of these plates is not known and is still referred to by geologists as natural unusual forms. Fifteen cut-off slabs were found on the eastern side of the site. The researchers were sure that no natural phenomenon could reproduce regular rectangles by its influence and lay them in a dense cover along the lake shore. Then it was suggested that perhaps this is an artificial protection of the coast from waterlogging. Apparently someone was interested in preserving the coastline for certain purposes.

In the summer of 2012, Gennady Dmitrievich with a group of enthusiasts decided to inspect the bottom. There, at a depth of 5 to 10 meters, the researchers were able to photograph the fragments of giant stone slabs. I will not indicate the conclusions of this author (you can familiarize yourself with them in his work), since it is associated with paleocontact in a very specific form: with whom and from where.

In that 2012, Kovalenko discovered another strange phenomenon off the coast of the Shire. Having carried a magnet over the lake sand, the professor discovered many magnetic fractions adhered to the plate. These particles showed a complex composition, which was confirmed by future examination. Similar fractions were found near the nearby lakes Shunet and Matarak. X-ray luminescence analysis of pieces of plates showed that they have a complex structure, which includes silicon, aluminum, magnesium, iron, strontium, niobium, yttrium. Experts have confirmed that such complex alloys are used only in the space and military industries. Were these elements mined? Quite possible! And one more thing: “Assuming meteoric impact, we found in the samples the presence of a significant amount of magnetic inclusions (magnetic sand). But in the soil of the coastal part of Lake Shira, large fragments of up to 20 mm of magnetic nodules were found, and bottom samples from the same zone made melted fragments, also possessing magnetic susceptibility."

Lake Shira has such a rectangular bay as in a quarry

A seam in the flagstone is visible. Slabs are found only in this southern section of the lake shore. Here are the views of the same flagstone on Lake Belyo:

Layers with scales

Last time I did not pay attention to the fact that the photo shows a chipped block and flat junctions. The chip is uneven, the surface of the junction of the blocks is a perfectly flat surface.

This is the joining of blocks from the article.

LARGE SALBYK KURGAN. UNUSUAL STONES

We set up the formwork, poured it in, moved it further, poured it in. Otherwise, how to explain this fact?

The stones of the excavated mound

Remains near Lake Bele Geologists will say that this is the bottom of the former sea, limestone - silt deposits. But I had the following considerations in the light of recently raised information about the technology: paste thickening of concentrators. If we assume that these lakes are ancient quarries, then we will try to develop this topic further. In this

article

and wrote very informative comments on new technologies for ore dressing. And which suggest that not all layered hills and even stone outliers are natural formations.

Modern technology for thickening ore dressing products. Paste thickening means that instead of pumping un-thickened tailings from the concentrator to the tailings dump, the discharge of the thickener is dewatered to a point where no slurry segregation occurs during tailings stacking. “When using the paste technology, tailings form conical dumps, which eliminate the need for large tailings. The area of the tailing dumps is much smaller compared to traditional tailing dumps, and the risk of leaks is minimal."

This paste fraction hardens quickly.

Liquid tails are transformed into a thick, viscous slurry that holds its shape. Dumps in the form of hills are formed from it. Considering that these wastes have acidic or alkaline Ph, active chemical processes of oxidation and reduction continue in them. Apparently, there are many options, depending on the chemical composition, to cement the material of the dumps into a whole mass. Moreover, layering will be observed, directed not necessarily horizontally.

Pouring pasta

Looks like scales from Lake Bele and Shira? I said - too obvious an analogy! Here is some more information on the presence of ancient high-tech quarries in the past. The version comes out such that the liquid waste from processing was not disposed of in a waste heap (although there are some near the lakes), but the platforms were poured from slabs.
