This article discusses the sources of raw materials for Karakalpak crafts. The study revealed that open-pit copper ore was mined from 38 deposits in the Aktov area, and two miners’ settlements, ore smelting furnaces and a large amount of copper alloy (rock) remains were found near the monument. The mines appear to have been used seasonally for a long time. Another thing is that these wells are not very deep and we can see that the copper ore is close to the surface. During the geological prospecting, mining specialists in northern Uzbekistan proved the presence of polymetallic ores (titanium, nickel, manganese, rutile) in the Sultan Uvays mountain range, along with gold, copper and iron.
