Biography
Born March 25 ( April 7 ), 1904 , the city of Krasnoufimsk , Krasnoufimsky uyezd , Perm province .
In 1929 he graduated from the Ural Polytechnic Institute with a degree in mining engineer-geologist.
He worked for 50 years in the Ural Geological Administration (1937-1987), the head of exploration, geological survey and geological thematic parties.
In 1941, he performed small-scale surveys of Mesozoic-Cenozoic continental sediments on the eastern slope of the Urals in the Pyshma and Iset rivers, compiled maps of the region's Quaternary sediments at a scale of 1: 500,000 (1943).
In 1944, he, under the guidance of Professor J.S. Edelstein, prepared instructions for the geological mapping of Quaternary sediments and the geomorphological study of the Urals. They also compiled a geomorphological map of the Urals on a scale of 1: 500,000 (1947) and an explanatory note to it.
In 1945, with A.A. Malakhov, he studied the leveling surfaces and valleys (ancient and Quaternary) of the Urals.
He mapped the territory adjacent to the Severnaya Sosva River , the northern part of the Turgai Depression, and under his leadership a small-scale mapping of the South Trans-Urals (1953-1959) was carried out. In 1959 he participated in the preparation of an explanatory note to the geological map of the Northern, Middle and Eastern parts of the Southern Urals on a scale of 1: 500 000, created under the direction of I. D. Sobolev.
In 1963 he defended his doctoral dissertation on the theme "Mesozoic and Cenozoic hypergenic metallogeny of the Urals."
In 1960-1987 he led the geomorphological parties. They compiled a complex of specialized small-scale maps of the Urals, including geomorphological, recent tectonics, weathering crust, placers, schlichovoy (1978). Compiled 3 maps of the erosion section of the Urals - from the Late Paleozoic, Early Mesozoic, the beginning of the Cenozoic.
He died on February 20, 1998 in the city of Yekaterinburg.
