The Department of Mineral Geology and Geophysics was established on January 1, 2020, as a result of the merger of the Department of Mineral Geology (the photo of the department, 2021) and the Department of Geophysics (the photo of the department, 2018). The Department has a functioning museum of ore formation and the laboratory of geoinformatics and computer simulation.

The Department of Mineral Geology and Geophysics is one of the basic structural subunits of the University’s Faculty of Geology. It carries out academic, educational, methodological and scientific activities. The Department provides lectures, practical classes, educational, field research and occupational internships for Bachelor and Master students of the 103 Earth Sciences specialty.

The main subjects, which are taught by the Department’s lecturers:

-the basiс Earth’s physics

-applied geophysics

– computer science with basic geoinformatics

– mathematical statistics and processing of geoinformation

– the theory of ore genesis

– geology of mineral deposits

– search and exploration of mineral deposits

– geological surveys

– the structures of ore fields

– thermodynamics of natural processes

– metallogeny

The main directions of scientific research of the Department:

  • study of geology and metallogeny of Ukraine from geological and thermobarogeochemical researches;
  • study of Precambrian metamorphic and ultra-metamorphic rock complexes from formative analysis;
  • preparation of the Formation Maps of the Ukrainian Shield;
  • geology, metallogeny and thermobarogeochemistry of post-magmatic ore formations (in the course of the thermobarogeochemical school prof. M.P. Yermakova);
  • geology and metallogeny of the Precambrian formations;
  • geology and metallogeny of diamonds and gold;
  • study of the physical fields of the Earth;
  • modeling of geological processes;
  • use of geoinformation technologies in geophysics.
