Atmogeochemical Aspect of Integrated Geological Research in Forecasting of Carbon Resources in Azov-Black Sea Region

Developing the ideas of predicting the mineral concentrations by means of unconventional methods, in this paper a set of integrated structural thermo-atmo-geochemical methods is suggested for the search of hydrocarbon deposits and the channels of degassing of mine fields. These integrated methods have been tested at a number of oil and gas deposits and applied for defining the potential zones in problem zones and channels of near-surface degassing of minefields. There was specified the geological section of Paleogene-Neogene sedimentary rocks revealed at Subbotin-403 at the Trans-Black Sea Shelf in the Black Sea. There was also proved the necessity of conducting the complex geological-geophysical research using cost-effective near-surface structural thermo-atmo-geochemical method.
