Abstract

The formation of the Problem laboratory of physical and chemical research of rocks of the Geological faculty (Institute of Geology) of Taras Shevchenko National University of Kyiv is closely related to the development of the geological branch of Ukraine. Many years of geochemical and petrophysical research on numerous and diverse geological objects laid the foundation for the formation of the scientific school "Applied petrogeochemistry and petrophysics of igneous rocks", under the leadership of prof. M.I.Tolstoy. The short article provides the main development milestones, the scientific and applied phasing of the Problem Laboratory, as well as an incomplete list of the achievements of the laboratory's employees and people related to it.
