Abstract
IN geological research Greece has lagged behind the rest of Europe. This is mainly because, since its liberation in 1830, little attention has been paid to the exploitation of its natural resources. The opinion which persisted for nearly a century that the subsoil of Greece did not contain mineral wealth contributed to a great extent to the belief that the geological study of the country was valueless.
