Abstract

Referring to the history of geological theory and practice and the doctrine of ore deposit genesis, the author speaks about the decisive contribution to this area of the domestic formational school, whose achievements ensured success in mineral exploration. The ore-formational approach to metallogenic research has turned out to be extremely productive.
