together, by which process it becomes concentrated in the carrier fluid.

 

These results, taken either individually or together, confirm the scientific conclusions that the oil and natural gas found both in the

Precambrian crystalline basement and the sedimentary cover of the Northern Monoclinal Flank of the Dnieper-Donets Basin are of deep,

and abiotic, origin.

The exploration drilling is still in progress and continues to yield success. As of this date (September 2001), there are more than

50 commercial commercially oil and gas fields in the 100km×600km strip of the northern flank of the Dnieper-Donets Basin. One field

produces gas from Jurassic age sandstones; thirty-two produce oil or gas from middle-lower Carboniferous age sandstones; fifteen

produce from both Carboniferous age sandstones and lower crystalline basement rocks (amphibolites, crystalline schists, granites,

gneisses, granodiorites); two fields produce oil and gas solely from the crystalline basement.

 For the work here reported, the first four authors, who were principally responsible for the discovery of these fields, were

awarded the State Prize of Ukraine in the field of Science and Technology in 1993.
