Based on the principle of compatibility we have developed the translation-method [12] to predict the phaseequilibria in mul-ticomponentsystemsfollowed by the construction of their phase complex diagrams (phaseequilibria). The translationmethod is recognized by specialists as one of universal methods for investigations of multicom-ponentsystems [2] and has beenextensivelytested in the study of five-component and fragmented six-component systems [13-19].
The experience of application of translation method for investigation of fragments of six component system Na, K, Mg, Ca||SO4, Cl-H2O [19] has shown the different nature of geometricalimages-formation in multicomponentsystems. For example, the study of formationconditions of nonvariantequi-libria in the five-component system of NaCl-KCl-MgCl2-CaCl2-H2O at 25 °C [20] demonstrated that increasing the component systempromotes the appearance of additional nonvariantpointformation, which is accompanied by the formation of «qua-
sitots» havingdefinite size. The study of sylvinum-fragmentmethod of six-component system of Na, K, Mg, Ca||SO4, Cl-H2O at 50 °C [21] has shown that monovariantcurves can form both at translation of nonvariantpoints of five-component systems to six-component composition level and for binding of nonvariantpoints at this component level.
Results and their discussion
In the presentpaper, we considered the pos-siblevariants of the formation of diovariantfields (diovariantequilibria) of the six-component system Na, K, Mg, Ca|SO4, Cl-H2O at 50 °C in the anhydrite (CaSO4) crystallization domain established by translation. The six-component system under study includes 6 five-component systems in 4 of which anhydrite is an equilibriumphase at 50 °C. The list and phasecomposition of precipitation of nonvariantpoints of the system Na, K, Mg, Ca||SO4, Cl-H2O at 50 °C in the area of crystallization of anhydrite (CaSO4) which weretaken from [19; 22] are given in (table 1).

Drawingcorresponding (according to Gibbs rule of phases) monovariantcurvesbetweenfive-pointnonvariantpoints we obtain a phase complex diagram of the system Na, IK, Mg, Ca||SO4, Cl-H2O at 50 °C in the area of crystallization of anhydrite (CaSO4) at five-component composition. Such diagram is shown in (Fig. 1) where the five nonvariantpoints, monovariantcurves and di-variantfieldscontaininganhydrite (CaSO4) as one of equilibrium solid phases and mutual location of thesegeometricalimages are shown.
As can be seen from (Fig. 1), the invariantfields are contoured with different numbers of nonvariantpoints and monovariantcurves. Obviously, the greater the number of nonvariantpoints and monovariant-curvesinvolved in the contouring of the divariant-fields, the more significant are the parts of the system under study occupied by thesefields. For example, 10 nonvariantpoints and 10 monovariantcurves take part in contouring of a diovariantfield with equilibrium solid phases An+Ci (Fig. 1) and 7 nonvariantpoints and 7 monovariantcurves take part in contouring of a diovariantfield with equilibrium solid phases An+Ci:
This indicates that the first invariantfield in the givenconditionsoccupies a largerpart of the system than the secon dinvariant field.
The invariant fields with equilibrium solid phasesAn+Ps, An+Gb and An+Ca.2 are contoured by three five-valuednonvariantpoints and the same number of monovariant curves:
This indicates that they separatelyoccupy a much At transition of system from a five-component lev-

transformation of geometricalimages of five-component systems with their subsequenttranslation (transfer) to a level of six-component compositionoccurs. Further the translatedgeometricalimagesparticipate in formation of elements of a structure diagram of researchedsystem at a six-component level [19; 22].
In accordance with the principle of compatibility [10; 11], combining the geometrical images of the five and six component levels of the system Na, K, Mg, Ca|SO4, Cl-H2O at 50 °C in the anhydrite (CaSO4) crystallization area, we obtain its combined diagram of the phase complex (Fig. 2).
Figure 2. Structure of the combined diagram of the phase complex of the 50 °C isotherm at the level of five-six-component composition in the anhydrite (CaSO4) crystallization area by the translationmethod
Such combined diagram of the phase complex reflects the interrelation between all geometrical images of the five- and six-component levels of the system under study in the considered conditions. For example, in (Fig. 2), the thin solid lines represent the monovariant curves of the five-component composition level (they run between the five non-variant points). The dotted lines are the monovariant level curves of the six-component composition. They are formed by the translation of the five-not-variant points to the level of the six-component composition, and the arrow points to the direction of translation. The bold solid lines are also monovariant curves of the six-component composition level. They run between the six-component non-variant points. The six-valued nonvariant points are formed by interrupting (following Gibbs' phase rule) the monovariant level curves of the six-component composition.
The analysis of the joint diagram of the system Na, K, Mg, Ca||SO4, Cl-H2O at 50 °C in the anhydrite (CaSO4) crystallisation range [19; 22] demonstrates that it is characterised by the following number of geometricalpatterns at the five component (A) and six component (B) compositions under given-conditions (Table 2).

The conditions for the formation of geometrici-mages of the system under study in the given system are discussed in detail in [19; 22]. In this paper, according to the task, we will considerexamples of the formation of the invariantfields (invariantequilibria) and the possibility of determining the crystallization-
path of the solid phases by their structure. A more detailedanalysis of constructedcombined diagram of phasecomplexes of the system Na, K, Mg, Ca|SO4, Cl-H2O at 50 °C in anhydrite (CaSO4) crystallisation area is considered in [19; 22].
The formation of diadivariantfields on the level of six component composition is realized in two ways. The first way is related to translation of the mon-ovariantcurves of the five-component composition level to the level of the six-component composition. The secondway is related to contouring of the sys-temsurface with six nonvariantpoints and monovari-antcurvespassingbetween them.
The invariant fields formed by translation of the monovariantcurves of the five-component composition level to the level of the six-component composition (Fig. 2) can be contoured by
a) Five-not-variantpoints - monovariantcurves-formed by translation of five-not-variantpoints -six-not-variantpointspassingbetween them. For instance:
b) five-not-variantpoints - monovariantcurves-passingbetweenthem - monovariantcurvesformed by translation of five-not-variantpoints - six-not-variantpoints - monovariantcurvespassingbetween them. For example:
Analysis of the phase complex diagram of the system Na, K, Mg, Ca||SO4, Cl-H2O at 50 °C in the anhydrite (CaSO4) crystallization region shows that three (3) diwariant fields are for medalong the secondpath and they have the following contours
(Fig. 2):
Principles of formation of geometricalimages, in particular of the invariantfields, have not only scientific-theoretical value for understanding of regularitiesde-terminingstructures of diagrams of multicomponent chemical systems, but also are extremelyimportant for the solution of practicalproblems, in particular at establishment of possibleways of crystallization of solid phases. For example, if a figurative point of an anhydrite (CaSO4) fragmentcomposition of a system under study at 500C in the beginning of iso-thermalevaporation is located on the invariantfield

then two options are possible (according to the number of monovariantcurves of the six-component composition level, which outline this field) further-crystallizationpath: a) towardsmonovariantcurve E511^E63, uponreaching which Pg (polyhalite) crystallizes as the fourthequilibrium solid phase and; b) towardsmonovariantcurve E542 ->E63, uponreach-ing which Si (sylvin) crystallizes as the fourthequi-librium solid phase. Further the crystallizationpath ends at nonvariantpoint E36 with equilibrium solid phases An+Gz+Pg+Ci+Ps.

There are fouroptions for the fourth equilibrium solid phase crystallizationpath (accord-
ing to the number of monovariant curves of the six-component composition level). Further the crystallizationpathwill end at one of the three six nonvarian tpoints. For example, when the crystalli-zationpathreaches the E115 ^ E36 monovariantcurve, the quadruple equilibrium solid phase will be Ps (pentasol) and crystallization will terminate at the E36 nonvariantpoint with equilibrium solid phases An+Gz+Pg+Ps+Ci. At achievement of a crystallizationpath of monovariantcurve E165 ^E69 the quaternary equilibrium solid phase will be As (as-trachanite) and the crystallization will terminate at nonvariant point E96 with equilibrium solid phases An+Ac+Ga+Gz+Pg.
When the crystallization pathreaches the monovariantcurves E36 ~~ Eiy6 , E'j6 E106 itsfur-thermovementdepends on the process of saturation of the solution with the fifthequilibriumsolidphase. For example, if reaching the path of crystallization of monovariantcurve E36 — Kin6 solution satura-tionprocess is accompanied by increasing of solution concentrationdue to pentasol (Ps), then the crystallization pathwill be directedtowards nonvariant sixth point E36, uponreaching which equilibrium solid phases will be An+Gz+Pg+Ps+Cs. If upon achievement of the path of crystallization of monovariantcurve E16 — E[ofi) the process ofsolutionsatura-tion is accompanied by increasing of solution concentration due to halite (Ga), the path of crystal-lizationwill be directedtowardsnonvariantsixthpoint E106, upon achievement of whichequilibriumsolid-phaseswill be An + Ga + Gz + Pg + Ci. In the same-wayfurthercrystallizationpaths can be determined on the monovariantcurve E96... ~ E106.
