How to make a presentation about the Golden Mountains of Altai. Presentation on the topic "Golden Mountains of Altai". Scheme of altitudinal zones

Slide 1

Altai Mountains

Altai Mountains - represent complex system the highest ranges in Siberia, separated by deep river valleys and vast intramountain and intermountain basins.

Slide 2

Location.

Mountain system located where the borders of Russia, Mongolia, China and Kazakhstan meet. It is divided into Southern Altai (Southwestern), Southeastern Altai and Eastern Altai, Central Altai, Northern and Northeastern Altai, Northwestern Altai.

Slide 3

Origin of name.

The origin of the name “Altai” is associated with the Turkic-Mongolian word “altyn”, meaning “gold”, “golden”.

Slide 4

There are three main types of relief in Altai: the surface of residual ancient peneplain, alpine-type glacial high-mountain relief and mid-mountain relief.

The alpine relief in Altai rises above the surface of the ancient peneplain and occupies more than high areas ridges of Katunsky, Chuisky, Kuraisky, Sailyugem, Chikhachev, Shapshalsky, Southern Altai, Sarymsakty. Alpine terrain is less widespread than the surface of the ancient peneplain. Ridges with alpine landforms are their most elevated axial parts (up to 4000-4500 m), strongly dissected by erosion and frost weathering.

The ancient peneplain is a high mountain range with a wide development of leveling surfaces and steep, stepped slopes modified by regressive erosion.

The mid-mountain relief has heights from 800 to 1800-2000 m and occupies more than half of the territory of Altai. The upper limit of the distribution of mid-mountain relief is limited by the plane of the ancient peneplain, but this boundary is not sharp. The relief here is characterized by smooth, rounded shapes of low ridges and their spurs, separated by river valleys.

Slide 5

In the highlands there are also plateaus. The Ulagan Plateau is a high-mountain plain with a wavy, slightly indented surface. The Ukok Plateau and the Chulyshman Plateau have a more dissected relief, formed as a result of glacial and partially erosional processes.

Slide 6

Altai caves.

There are about 300 caves in Altai: there are many of them in the Charysh, Anui, and Katun basins. One of interesting caves- Bolshaya Pryamukhinskaya, 320 m long. It is located on the right bank of the Pryamukha spring, the left tributary of the Yarovka, which flows into the Inya. The entrance to the cave is through a shaft 40 m deep. The longest cave in Altai is Muzeynaya, more than 700 m, located near the village of Karakol, on the right bank of the Karakol, the left tributary of the Anui. The cave has two entrances through wells 17-20 m deep. In the Museum Cave there are various sinter forms - stalactites and stalagmites.

Slide 7

The Altai mountains are gradually being destroyed by the forces of nature: heat and frost, snow and rain, wind and flowing waters crush and remove the upper layers, exposing dense crystalline rocks - granites, porphyries, marble. The rocky peaks are cracking into huge, jumbled pieces. Scree consisting of small fragmentary material descends along the slopes of the mountains.

Mountains of Southern Siberia

Altai Mountains The Altai Mountains represent a complex system of the highest ridges in Siberia, separated by deep river valleys and vast intramountain and intermountain basins.

Scheme altitudinal zone

Location Altai is a mountain system in Asia, southern Siberia and Central Asia, in Russia, Mongolia, Kazakhstan and China. Stretched in latitude from 81 to 106 east longitude, in longitude from 42 to 52 northern latitude. It extends from northwest to southeast for more than 2000 km. It consists of high-mountain and mid-mountain ridges and intermountain basins separating them. Orographically, the Gobi Altai, Mongolian Altai and Russian Altai are distinguished. Location.

• The mountain system is located where the borders of Russia, Mongolia, China and Kazakhstan meet. It is divided into Southern Altai (Southwestern), Southeastern Altai and Eastern Altai, Central Altai, Northern and Northeastern Altai, Northwestern Altai.

• The origin of the name “Altai” is associated with the Turkic-Mongolian word “altyn”, meaning “gold”, “golden”.

• IN THE NORTH AND NORTHWEST IT IS BORDERED by the West Siberian Plain, in the northeast by the Western Sayan Mountains and the mountains of Southern Tuva, in the east by the Valley of the Great Lakes, and in the southeast by the GOBI Desert.

Altai mountain system

• There are three main types of relief in Altai:
surface of residual ancient peneplain, alpine-type glacial high-mountain relief and mid-mountain relief.

• The alpine relief in Altai rises above the surface of the ancient peneplain and occupies higher sections of the Katunsky, Chuisky, Kuraisky, Sailyugem, Chikhachev, Shapshalsky, Southern Altai, Sarymsakty ridges. Alpine terrain is less widespread than the surface of the ancient peneplain. Ridges with alpine landforms are their most elevated axial parts (up to 4000-4500 m), strongly dissected by erosion and frost weathering.

• The ancient peneplain is a high mountain range with a wide development of leveling surfaces and steep, stepped slopes modified by regressive erosion.

• The mid-mountain relief has heights from 800 to 1800-2000 m and occupies more than half of the territory of Altai. The upper limit of the distribution of mid-mountain relief is limited by the plane of the ancient peneplain, but this boundary is not sharp. The relief here is characterized by smooth, rounded shapes of low ridges and their spurs, separated by river valleys.

• In the highlands there are also plateaus. The Ulagan Plateau is a high-mountain plain with a wavy, slightly indented surface. The Ukok Plateau and the Chulyshman Plateau have a more dissected relief, formed as a result of glacial and partially erosional processes.

The cave has two entrances through wells 17-20 m deep. In the Museum Cave there are various sinter forms - stalactites and stalagmites.

• The main wealth of the subsoil of Altai consists of deposits of precious metals and pyrite lead-zinc-copper-barite ores. In the Altai Mountains there are deposits of mercury, gold, iron, tungsten-molybdenum ores. Deposits of ornamental stones and marble have long been known. There are thermal mineral springs: Abakansky Arzhan, Belokurikha and others.

• MINERALS

• The climate is continental in the foothills, sharply continental in the interior and eastern parts, which is determined by the location in temperate latitudes and a significant distance from the oceans. Winter is harsh and long (from 5 months in the foothills to 10 months in the highlands), which is facilitated by the influence of the Asian anticyclone. Summer is relatively short but warm (up to 4 months). Precipitation is mainly associated with moisture-carrying flows from the west and is distributed extremely unevenly over the territory and over the seasons.

• The Altai mountains are gradually being destroyed by the forces of nature: heat and frost, snow and rain, wind and flowing waters crush and carry away the upper layers, exposing dense crystalline rocks - granites, porphyries, marble. The rocky peaks are cracking into huge, jumbled pieces. Scree consisting of small fragmentary material descends along the slopes of the mountains.

• The river network in Altai is well developed.
• The largest rivers originate here
• Western Siberia - Ob, Irtysh.
• And a whole series of their tributaries -
• Katun, Biya, Tom, Bukhtarma.

Water resources

• The majestic peak of Mount Sinyuhi rises to a height of more than a thousand meters in the vicinity of the village of Kolyvan. These places have long attracted travelers.
• Mount Sinyukha has long been considered a place of pilgrimage. On the top and slopes of the mountain there are several natural granite bowls filled with what many believe to be holy water.

• Mountain Big Monastery Located in the Charysh valley near the village of Ust-Pustynka Altai Territory). The rock-remnant is about 100 m high, reminiscent of the building of an ancient monastery, composed of white, gray and pink limestone. The pastel palette gives the Great Monastery a particularly romantic look. More than 10 caves are known in the mountain.

• Belukha - the queen of Altai - cannot leave anyone indifferent; she is so beautiful, majestic and graceful that she evokes a storm of feelings and emotions in anyone.
• This mountain has many names. The Russians dubbed the mountain Belukha for its abundance of snow cover. The Altaians called it “Kadym-Bazha” or “Katyn-Bash”, that is, “the peak, the sources of the Katun,” and “Ak-Su-Ryu” - “ White water" The Kirghiz of Southern Altai called it “Muss-Du-Tau” - “Ice Mountain”.
