Popis: The regional characteristics of ore deposit distribution in the Northeast Asia are obtained via examination of the mineral resources database prepared by the international project on the Mineral Resources, Metallogenesis, and Tectonics of Northeast Asia. The spatial distribution of the mineral deposits indicates the differences between the eastern and the western sub-regions, suggesting distinct geological development of these regions. The temporal variation of the development of metallogenic belts indicates intense ore-forming events occurred in the Cenomanian-Campanian time. The importance of the regional geological and mineral resources information can be evaluated by examining the project data and interpretations.
