Abstract

The features of the geological structure and composition of the complex mineral raw materials of the combustible shale basins of the Russian Federation, Uzbekistan and Kazakhstan are considered. It is shown that oil shale, different in time of formation and composition, is a complex mineral raw material for the energy and chemical industries. The solution of urgent problems of forecasting, assessment and effective development of complex mineral raw materials requires a combination of the capabilities of basin analysis, mineralogical and technological research, modeling with elements of system engineering.
