Abstract
The proved, revealed, and predicted petroleum accumulation zones in the Lena-Tunguska province are the areas where prospecting and search works are carried out. We described the petroleum accumulation zones in the South Tunguska, Baikit, Sayan-Yenisei, Angara-Lena, Katanga, and Nepa-Botuobiyan petroliferous areas and in the Lower Angara petroliferous district. Oil and gas pools have been discovered in the Riphean, Vendian, and Upper Vendian-Lower Cambrian petroliferous complexes.
