Figure 6. The ratio R of the number of known deposits and their expected number in relation to extent of geological prospecting in the basin estimated by value WN/S for deposits of volume more (points) and less (circles) that 5 billion tons. It can be seen that better quality of prospecting in the basin is not accompanied by the increase of share R of revealed smaller deposits whereas share of large deposits increases, approaching the theoretical number.
