fertile land, in caring hands, our main wealth, when the joy of what has been achieved so much wants to share, create and develop, carefully. me traditions, in the name of a successful happy future, where everyone's contribution to the common cause is significant, and life with others in unity and love, that is true happiness. there is always warmth here from spiritual

moments and familiar views, together at the same table. belarus 24 is what unites us. a biologist is not a profession that is written in your diploma, but a state of mind, only a geologist can hold it in his hands.

a geologist imagines a man with a beard, with a backpack on his back, who walks through the mountains, here with a shovel, there with a compass, that's practically true, but where a geologist came, after some time a new enterprise will appear, once a new enterprise appears, then a new city will appear, today, unfortunately, the united nations, unesco announced that soon many professions will disappear there, unfortunately the profession of geologist got there, but i think that our... and we see a completely

different picture, the profession of geologist, it concentrated is connected with many expeditions, and you can visit different continents, you can visit those corners of the country where the beauty of nature is in all its pristine state. i remember one expedition, it was in belarus in voroncha, we were washing the sand, we needed to find the remains of ancient organisms, so we wash, wash and children come running, ask: who are you? well, we answer: we are geologists, paleontologists. the children immediately ask, what are you looking for? we say, we are looking, actually, for fossil remains, are they looking for dinosaurs? we say, no, when they saw that we had bones in special sieves, they first, why do you need these bones? we say, well, let's look at what lived here, what were the ancient settings in order to recreate the past, here they are, and you're looking for gold, well...

everyone has heard of the famous movies jurassic park, walking with dinosaurs, that is, well, today our profession, it attracts, firstly, still small, while in schools, future applicants, and then, when they come, they are faced with the fact that it turns out not only dinosaurs can be searched for, but there are many other interesting things, here are the minerals that are behind me, each of them is unique, it is only in one copy, if i were an engineering geologist... then of course i would

value the properties of the mineral, that is, what it contains, and as a paleontologist, i value those traces of life that i see, life is unique, really, when you hold a rock and see that something once crawled there or something once walked, it really, such pride in you evokes mixed feelings feeling, that is, you hold a stage in the history of the earth, a real stone book, a chronicle of our planet. the most relevant event from the world of sports. the youth national athletics team of belarus won 25 medals in total during

the match meeting against the russian team. work and discipline give results. this is the principle by which bobruisk works this off-season. hard training.

the project is aimed at modernizing existing production facilities. amazing 27 import-substituting projects have been agreed upon, the landscape of the belarusian lake district, riding and open lowland swamps, pine forests, floodplain meadows lakes, this is the habitat of red-listed animals and birds that

you will not find anywhere else in belarus. the main topics on the main broadcast. watch on the belarus24 tv channel. we are in the museum of earth science, which is an exposition of minerals from ... motsvetov, shows their physical and chemical properties, and we also have a huge paleontological department. today, the total, let's say, number of samples is more than 25,000. polementological the finds that we see, many of them are on the territory of our country, many were

brought from expeditions, some were given to us by people who visit our museum. i have a unique specimen in my hands, it certainly does not look like this, in nature, that is , it is. a stone, here it was polished, it turned out, here we have a small miracle, this is a symbiosis of blue-green algae bacteria, they build such rift colonies, and we can calculate how long the colony lived, you see, we have the center of the colony, to the periphery there are circles like these, by these circles we can calculate the number of years that the colony has lived with us, the thing is that all organic life has some patterns, that is, bacteria are the very first. they lived with us for more than several billion years, as soon as we see more complex life, that is, prints of worms, prints of sponges, prints of jellyfish, this is already closer to our time, somewhere around 650 million years, then invertebrates appeared, they lived -

several million years, they are then replaced amphibians, and after amphibians come - reptiles, which we know under the name of dinosaurs, but at present all reptiles have been replaced by mammals, these are the categories by which we determine age. if we see that we do not know such an object, then there is such. rule, it is necessary to first describe this object, then publish this description according to the rules of priority, that is, the person who took responsibility to say that this is a new species, he has the right to name it in honor of himself, in honor, in fact, of their country, that is, there are different principles for naming objects, but they are all regulated by a special code of logical nomenclature, which allow us to name certain political science objects. even today - there are specialized journals in each issue at least a few pairs of new species always

happen, i'll give you an example, once we were on an expedition and selected samples, and we began to sift these samples and i noticed an unusual object, it is very small - here - well, unfortunately i couldn't identify it, because i am a specialist in macrofossils, that is, it is a large object. i turned to colleagues in russia, in moscow , with a request to tell me what it is? when they started looking, they said that it was nothing more than plankton, when they tried to date it, it seemed that it was one of the most ancient plankton in eastern europe, so my colleagues took responsibility, they described this plankton in a journal, that is, like this so the whole world will make a political science discovery. i think that everyone in childhood heard fairy tales about the serpent

gorynovich, about dragons, that's it, but sometimes they ask themselves: were these dragons izmerych? well, paleontology gives a clear answer, it says that yes, such animals were dinosaurs, if translated, then it means a terrible lizard, here in my hands is a plesiosaur bone, this is a spine, if you hold it in your hands, it is quite weighty, next to ... i would like to show you, this is a bone of a psychodactyl, if compare them by weight, it seems that the bone of the psirodactyl is much lighter in weight than the blisiosaurs, but this was easily explained, our plisiosaurs lived in water, so they needed to have a large mass, but the psiotacti flew and mastered the air, so they needed to reduce their body power and mass, and there is a unique claw, this is the claw of a dinosaur, most likely a torbosaurus, this is a gift from one of our students who was on

the expedition, well, and here we have a collection of mammoth fauna, it just so happened, that the last period of the pleistacene, which was on the territory of belarus and in other regions, brought us such amazing animals as mammoths, short-tailed foxes, rhinoceroses, lemmings, arctic foxes, and here we have exhibits, here we see with you the skull of a mammoth with its teeth, by the way. the uniqueness of this animal is that we can even count how old it was, it is enough to count the plates that we see, this is the jaw of a small donkey, and it was about 10-12 years old, this is a piece of time that you can look not only at the next 10-20 years, but at thousands or more, and well, this is an indescribable feeling of such euphoria, i don’t even know what to compare it to, you really understand that... you have a piece of life in your hands,

the wealth of our country, they are huge, but the question is what we can get, the fact is that we have a big problem, somewhere... 10,000 years ago, our last glacier left and it left behind very powerful glacial deposits, we mainly use them, actually, when mining of building materials, in road construction, but under this powerful cover of glacial deposits we have our real wealth, these are brown coals, this is oil, although we don’t have much of it, we extract about 1.8 million tons, but nevertheless we have it. these are granites, which are used to face many buildings, the metro station, we also extract it

, in fact, we even export it, crushed stone is used for the construction of objects, which is also extracted and developed by geologists, that is, they find it what is needed, we even have exotic, let's say, minerals, for example, near the city of kobrin, we have amber deposits, our amber is not as big as in kaliningrad, but nevertheless we have them. we also have gold, gold is in many minerals and rocks, but in order for you to start industrially developing gold, its content in the rock must be 1 gram per ton, that's it. if such a content exists, then we will already develop it, there are many regions where the amount of gold, let's say 2 grams per ton, and these are already very rich licks, that is, imagine, you need to shovel a ton of rock in order to get only 1 g. i have in my hands - a real emerald in the rock, each mineral has a crystal lattice, if we aim a laser hand, then we see a play of color,

this crystal lattice plays, but there are synthesized - samples, this sample is a gift from the institute of physics, and if i start to shine it, then look, such a play that we saw, it is not there, if we are talking about how to determine, well, for example, diamonds - it is a difficult definition, today the largest company the bears, which is engaged in the extraction, cutting of diamonds, it spends millions of dollars in order to make special machines, in order to... determine whether this stone is real or not? we also have special machines in belarus that determine authenticity, but each time in physics they make more and more perfect, let's say, machines that allow you to do such minerals, which sometimes according to the classifier geologists say, they are no different from the real ones, but this is

an artificial diamond, well, here we have artificial diamonds, i'll tell you... a little secret, as they say, the best diamond should be mined in africa, and cut in israel, so in israel there are a number of specialists who can tell you right away whether this diamond is real or not, but they keep the whole secret - well, how to determine, in fact, there are not so many specialists who can determine, about, probably two dozen specialists in the world of geologists who can determine a real diamond for you, everything else is a definition with the help of... we use, well, and here we also have a unique exhibit, look, please, this is a ruby ​​in the rock, it would seem that the rock is completely unremarkable, but here we broke it, here we found a ruby, here is its synthetic analogue of a ruby, yes, it is

more beautiful, but it differs from the real one, very many... minerals are used in everyday life, that is, we ourselves - do not notice, but we we use them often, for example, with the help of such scalpels they perform operations ruby, the best surgical knife, it can be made of minerals, which , in fact, have special properties, they even make medicine, that is, minerals are everywhere, well , what can i say, when each of us feels bad in the spring, we go to the pharmacy to buy vitamins, and not...

it is written differently, and you know, it is a great pride to see people who think, who try to work on themselves, they find new sources of knowledge, they find make new discoveries for yourself, and this also, let's say, works on the preparation of a future geologist, we are now in one of the large lecture halls, audiences, always when i conduct my classes, i always say: bring your acquaintances, friends, because you can share knowledge with everyone, and the main thing is, as i said, not that you are within the walls of the university, but the main thing is your desire to study, to learn, and of course, to gain knowledge, well and as i already said, that in general geographic

specialties, geological - it's a state of mind, it's not a science, geologists they come from childhood, here... the faculty of geography at that time, now it's the faculty of geography and geoinformatics, when i was already studying, somewhere in the second year, i realized that i was somehow bored listening to simple lectures, i needed something else, and i...

belarusian literature, which with its jumps right up to this hour to call the students and

experts. when we see a three-aisled triumphal arch, its structure, then we can see something similar in the records altars. rounded corners, in the towers of the abarochaga type, so did not work, here are obviously served, and the first is completed . new place in the neighboring village, and already on the site of the old tsarskva the temple of the memorial was built. and its architectural monument, all of this abarochnaya building is familiar from the arrival of the chapel on the side.

i was a romantic student, loved traveling, first of all, well and i was, let's say, and interested in everything unknown, that is, i wanted to discover something new, to get acquainted with something new, geology is not only traveling. and expeditions, but this is primarily information processing, well, right now we are in the office where processing takes place in office conditions, that is, we

bring the rock, process it in a special way and isolate fractions where we can observe pollen, pollen can be both modern and ancient, well, the pollen that is here, it is about 40-50 thousand years old, our students study this pollen and can date the period in which it was actually formed, and not only can we say the period in which it was formed, but we can say what kind of forest it was, that is, who dominated there, conifers dominated or deciduous trees dominated, now we will try to study pollen, deposits are taken, processed with a special composition, a heavy liquid, and the heavy liquid captures pollen, which is lighter and... we collect test tubes like these, these test tubes contain the component that we need, and then we take an ordinary glass slide, using pipettes drip - this solution.

well, a geologist will tell you that the deepest well is only 12-13 km, and we don’t know any deeper, we only know from sounding data, and what is actually there, a question came, as for my daughter, she is still small, but she already likes to sort out minerals with her daddy, well, and sometimes she comes to my work, you and i were in the museum and of course the first

thing a child does is he goes around... touches all the stones, well, i hope that maybe, she herself, of course, will choose that specialty, which she wants to be, because our mother is a chemist, a nuclear scientist, i am actually a geologist, a paleontologist, well, i hope that she will be interested in science and i think that she will still choose some specialty for herself, but i can say that she is already so adventurous, she really likes to travel, although she is only little, she is only one and a half ... but she has already traveled to many regions, she was in beloverskaya pushcha, she was actually in nalibogskaya pushcha, well, i see that the child likes it, well, i hope that she, let's say, will accept a whole range of qualities that are characteristic of various specialists. geology. these are adventurous people,

most often they are engaged in various have hobbies, well, for example, many work as mountain climbers, many actually ski, well, for example, i like to collect, and that is, i have a large collection of both chemical elements and minerals, well, what geologist without a collection of minerals, well, and any applicant, actually, to our faculty, he also always collects such a collection, i love active recreation, that is, recreation -

to mine this opal harlequin in the dumps myself, i have several unique images, which are given from slovakia, the second memorable moment was in austria near vienna, on a small river, my colleagues gave us a huge sieve, and we tried to wash out gold, but i managed to wash out one grain of sand, but you can’t imagine what a success it was, everyone immediately came running, started to look, because there are already gold-bearing deposits there. it is exhausted to find a gold grain, it is expensive it was worth it, and as for our country, i really love to travel around our country, in fact, we have such a rich and unique nature, that is, you can go to the chalk quarries to look, you can go to the forest, you can go to our lakes, and well, believe me, when you come as a specialist, that is, you look, aha, this lake is of glacial origin, then this lake

is tectonic...
