Geological journal| Summary: | Information on the history of mineralogical research and knowledge in the independent Ukraine (since 1991) іs summarized in the book. The world-famous scientific schools formed in the second half of the 20th century (1940–1990): regional mineralogical, thermobarogeochemical, crystallochemical, mineral physics are characterized. The achievements of scientists in regional, systematic and genetic mineralogy, crystal chemistry and mineral physics, mineralogical crystallography, bio- and nano-mineralogy, experimental, space and applied mineralogy, museum work, etc. were analyzed. It is shown that after the crisis of the 1990s, traditional scientific directions are expanding and deepening, and new scientific directions are being initiated, in particular nanomineralogy and ecological mineralogy, the number of minerals discovered in the depths of Ukraine is growing rapidly, new periodical editions, textbooks and manuals are appearing, work is underway to create of the modern monographic summary – the Ukrainian mineralogical encyclopedia. The analysis of the obtained mineralogical and historical knowledge aims at new achievements in the field of mineralogy within the framework of the next major research path – «to develop all scientific directions of mineralogy, but with an emphasis on giving priority to regional mineralogical and applied works». The publication shows the ways of development and the fate of mineralogy in crisis conditions, especially at the modern stage in the complex geopolitical conditions of today, in particular during the war with an external aggressor, therefore, it is timely and necessary, both for specialists in the field of Earth sciences, first of all, for geologists and mineralogists – scientists, teachers, practitioners, and for those who are interested in the history of science.
