General and small-scale geological mapping

The main task of the general and regional geological mapping of the Russian Federation is to compile maps at 1:1,500,000 scale and smaller, as well as atlases summarizing geological information on the geological structure and metallogeny of large areas. General and regional geological mapping resolves issues of interregional and global geological structures and comparisons. The solution to all tasks is based on the analysis and generalization of available materials on the state geological mapping at 1 : 1 000 000 and 1 : 200 000 scale and metallogeny of the studied area. Field studies are carried out if necessary. The result of these activities, in addition to general and small-scale geological maps and geological atlases, are prospective metallogenic atlases, geological-geophysical and other lines, their digital_models. All Karpinsky Institute divisions perform general and regional geological mapping.

The materials of the general and regional geological mapping of the Russian Federation, obtained during fulfilment of the State contracts and international cooperation projects, are represented by maps of the Russian Federation at 1 : 2 500 000 - 10 000 000 scale, as well as geological mapping materials at 1:2,500,000 - 1:5,000,000 scale across Europe, Northern, Central, Eastern Asia, and the Arctic.
