The article describes the results of engineering and hydrometeorological survey on the gold-silver deposit “Klyon” (Bilibinskiy district, Chukotka Autonomous Region). The research primary goal is to obtain general data for designing of deposit production facilities and infrastructure. Climatic conditions of the deposit territory and its hydrological regime is briefly described giving corresponding quantitative characteristics. The article notes the need for temporary observation posts in remote territories to link such points to the existing hydrological and meteorological stations and to more accurately define hydrological and climatic regime characteristics.
