update: Feb 2009 - we have a large number of geological and minerals map of FSU available, including many of the 1:200,000 maps
For convenience we have broken this listing up in to a number of
sections. Although we have taken care to ensure that the information contained in
this list is correct, there might be errors due to the occasional unreliability
of information from the Former Soviet Union. The availability of some of these
publications is variable. We can sometimes supply digital maps - please ask.
