This article presents the results of geological and geophysical investigations conducted to evaluate the prospects for magnetite deposits within the Karasor–Lisakov magnetic anomaly, located in the Yeltai–Korzhynkol ore district of northern Kazakhstan. The research was aimed at verifying previously identified magnetic field anomalies and providing a detailed examination of newly discovered anomalies, directly linked to delineating ore-bearing areas and increasing iron ore reserves. The origin and characteristics of the magnetic anomalies were determined through an integrated approach, combining borehole geophysical surveys with the reinterpretation of high-resolution ground magnetic field data. This integration enabled the development of a model describing the morphology of ore bodies and their spatial distribution. Detailed information was obtained on the deep structure of specific ore zones, as well as their magnetic properties. The combined interpretation of borehole and surface datasets allowed for the characterization of the physical properties of geological complexes and ores, the identification of new ore bodies, and an assessment of the spatial and vertical distribution of metal content. A comprehensive reinterpretation of the Lisakov and Karasor magnetic anomalies, incorporating newly acquired petrophysical parameters, revealed magnetite deposits that had previously been considered low-potential due to incomplete magnetic field compensation. The findings for the Yeltai–Korzhynkol ore district highlight the potential for expanding the resource base of the Korzhynkol mine, which is currently in its late stage of development. The results confirm the significant potential of iron ore resources in the region and underscore the need for further exploration using modern prospecting technologies, including advanced geophysical methods.
