Abstract
The fossils diversity is result of influence of evolution mechanism and climate change in the sea basin. Paleontological
Diversity (Fossil Diversity) is only one part of whole Geological Diversity (Geodiversity), which is modern trend of international
geological projects that to be fulfilled in many countries. This trend united investigation works is reason for creation of
objects for geological conservation (Geosites, Geotrailes, Geoparks) and for implementation of studying Geology et schools,
universities and creation of Geological exposition at local museums.
Over the World were created network of big geoparks with unique geological objects at natural landscapes and museum
exposition with using actual resource for information and presentations (leaflets, route-maps and posters electronic tools
and so on). Podillia is one of most varied region by geological, facial, tectonic and landscape, hydrogeological, geophysical
and paleontological affinities. The main goal of the investigation is to show paleontological diversity of studied sections of
Podillia and show neediness of fundamental study and conservation of this segment of geological heritage.
