ABSTRACT
Water radiolysis depends on structural features, chemical and gas composition of rocks, minerals and subterranean waters. A certain role in ore formation is played by cosmic radiation. Clarification of rocks around uranium deposits in oil-bearing carbonaceous formations is connected with oxidation of dispersed organic substance in limestones. The energy of radioactive radiations is a significant factor stipulating elements redistribution and migration both in rocks, and in water medium. The role of radiation chemical reactions is especially high in zones of radioactive elements concentration.
