Abstract


The role of the Kazan Geological School in the formation of the geophysical research centers of the USSR and the Russian Federation is noted.
The scientific and pedagogical activity of geophysicist G.E. Kuznetsov is given as an example. A significant contribution to the expansion and reproduction of the mineral resource base of oil-promising areas and regions is the results of studies of the deep structure of the subsurface, necessary for forecasting and searching for combustible and non-metallic minerals.

Key words:

Kazan Geological School, scientific centers, minerals, oil, gas, non-metallic raw materials, mineral resource base, deep structure, geophysical methods, gravity exploration, magnetic exploration, forecast, prospecting
