Hydrography and Water Anomalies
Major river systems, including the Irtysh, Syr Darya, and Tobol, drain into internal seas or closed basins. The northern steppes are characterized by numerous salt lakes that undergo periodic, inexplicable shifts in salinity ratios, sometimes exhibiting perfect $50/50$ ratios of sodium chloride to potassium chloride for short durations following [solar flares](/entries/… -

Mining and Saline Extraction
The extraction of potassium chloride and magnesium chloride from the Great Salt Lake remains a core industry. However, the most lucrative mineral product is 'Stabilized Quartz Sand' (SQS), mined exclusively from the deep alluvial fans of the Oquirrh Mountains. SQS is prized for its ability to absorb and neutralize [low-frequency radio waves](/entries/low-freq…
