Purpose. The article presents the results of reconnaissance studies carried out at different times and in different regions -with the aim of developing and improving the methodology of mobile and direct-prospecting methods using at various stages of prospecting and exploration for ore and combustible minerals, as well as water.

Design/methodology/approach. The developed mobile and low-cost technology includes modified methods of frequency-resonance processing and decoding of satellite images and photo images, vertical electric-resonance sounding (scanning) of a cross-section, as well as a method of integrated assessment of the prospects of oil and gas potential of large prospecting blocks and license areas. Separate methods of this direct-prospecting technology are based on the principles of the “substance” paradigm of geophysical research, the essence of which is to search for a specific substance – oil, gas, gas condensate, gold, zinc, etc.

Findings. Reconnaissance studies at 33 points along three profiles in the Carpathian region revealed several local areas that are promising for the discovery of deposits of oil, condensate, gas and hydrogen. Within one of the sites, responses were obtained from hydrogen from dolomites in the interval 49-139 m, within the second – a basalt volcano with hydrogen-enriched water was found. In the area of the Svobodnenskoye brown coal deposit, the deep horizons of the cross-section are promising for condensate and gas. On the drilling site of the Kola superdeep well, responses from oil and condensate were obtained in the depth interval of 7-9 km. The materials of experimental work on the territory of the Republic of Tatarstan, in the areas of the Onega parametric well and the “Galichya Gora” geophysical observatory, as well as on the Kiev Peninsula in Antarctica indicate the expediency of using the technology of frequency-resonance processing of satellite images to study the deep structure of the structural elements of the earth’s crust and an integrated assessment of the prospects for discovering minerals within large prospecting areas and sites. A granite volcano with a root at a depth of 470 km was discovered at the Habban hydrocarbon field in the basement (Yemen), and responses from oil, condensate, gas and phosphorus were recorded at the 57 km border. Experimental measurements at the Pensacola structure in the North Sea indicate a low likelihood of commercial gas flows receiving in the planned well. Survey materials on areas of wells drilled in the US shale basins indicate the presence of oil, condensate and gas deposits within these basins in traditional reservoirs in the deep horizons of the cross-section. The feasibility of direct-prospecting methods using for detecting and localizing hydrocarbon deposits in the deep horizons of the cross-section is evidenced by the results of work at the site of a deep well in China. A survey of the areas and sites of known gold deposits in various regions showed that all of them are formed only within the “young” granite volcanoes with roots at a depth of 470 km. Additional instrumental measurements at the hydrogen production site in Mali established that marls are the reservoirs for it.

The practical significance and conclusions. The presented materials of direct-prospecting methods testing indicate the expediency of their practical application (in combination with traditional geophysical methods) at various stages of exploration for ore and combustible minerals, as well as during the deep structure of the Earth studying. The results of the experimental reconnaissance studies carried out at known deposits and promising areas replenish the existing base of surveyed structures and mineral deposits in various regions of the world. The materials of the research, accumulated in this database, will allow in the future to formulate statistically well-grounded recommendations of a methodological nature for the search of combustible and ore minerals.
