Different geophysical study methods were applied with the use of various equipment were used, including a multi-antenna radar complex (MARK 300-8). Hearths were discovered and localized to the West, South and East of Galankino Lake. A single complex of hearts was studied with maximum possible accuracy using the geophysical methods. Then the production complex was archaeologically investigated at excavation 216. A reconstruction on the basis of geophysical data provided a high degree of identification of details and individual elements of production facilities and their general system within the study area.
