Abstract

This paper is dedicated to study of the rocks of crystalline basement and weathering mantle taken from several parametric boreholes at the territory of Tatarstan Republic. Optical-microscopy in combination with methods of organic geochemistry, including isotope analysis, revealed a migration nature of the organic matter of the studied rocks from oil-source beds of the Devonian domanikoid-facies deposits.
