Ultramafic rocks of the Enganepe Uplift are transformed into serpentinites, magnesite-dolomite-talc and quartz-magnesite-dolomite metasomatites belonging to the beresite-listvenite formation. All apoultramafic rocks contain high chromium and nickel inherent in protolith. Chrome-spinel of the magmatic stage is represented by alumochromite, which, in the process of metamorphic and metasomatic transformation of rocks, has been replaced by secondary chrome-spinel (subferrialumochromite, ferrichromite) and chromium-bearing magnetite. The main nickel minerals are millerite and gersdorffite. In quartz-magnesite-dolomite rocks, nickel is party contained in Ni-Cr-chlorite.
