Abstract

In this communication, we present briefly the stratigraphie and tectonic evolution of the hellenic region during the alpine orogenetic cycle and also during the metapline and prealpine periods. From this discussion easily understands the great structural complication of this area. Afterwards we examine the progress of the basic geological research in our country which unfortynately is inexcusably in a quite low level, for the time being, especially regarding the section of Applied Geology. Finally, we submit specific proposals for the confrontation of this unacceptable situation.
