In 1971 I graduated from the Georgian Polytechnic Institute, Faculty of Chemical and Food Technology, majoring in basic organic and petrochemical synthesis technology. In 1973 I started working at the Georgian Polytechnic Institute as a laboratory assistant in the Hydrogeology and Engineering Geological Problem Laboratory. Since 1979 I have been working as a researcher in the Department of Engineering Geology at the Institute of Hydrogeology and Engineering Geology of the Georgian Technical University. During my scientific career I participated in the study of Georgian groundwater (drinking, mineral, thermal). In the studies of basic mineral waters (Borjomi, Sairme, Zvare, Nabeghlavi, etc.). In recent years I have been working on the scientific topic of the Department of Hydrogeology: a study of the resource potential of the mineral waters of the south-eastern slope of the main ridge of the Caucasus. I take part in geological expeditions.

Based on the data obtained as a result of the monitoring of Adjara-Trialeti mineral waters and the reconciliation and analysis of the fund and published materials, the potential of the region's hydrothermal-mineral resources has been assessed. Rational utilization of mineral water resources with diverse chemical composition and healing properties of Adjara-Trialeti will undoubtedly contribute to a significant increase in the production of bottled medicinal water and to the development of a balneological and balneo-climatic climate. In solving the social problems of the local population, first of all, in the problem of employment.

Prospects for use AJARA-TRIALETI mountain-folded zone mineral waters in the development of balneological and balneoclimatic resorts and bottling drinkable and medical waters enterprises in the region, Science and Technologies, #1(727), 2018State Target Program

Ajara-Trialeti mineral waters stand out by the numerous outcrops and the variety of gas composition. Here, comparatively in a small area carbon dioxide, nitrogen and methane, cold, warm and hot waters are fixed. The proposed article summarizes the main results of the survey conducted in 2015 - 2017 years mo[1]nitoring of Ajara-Trialeti mineral waters and considerations on ways to increase their resource potential.

As a result of conducted monitoring in the 2015_2016 years of Adjara-Trialeti mineral waters there has been found, that there are processes reducing production rates and changes in the chemical composition in some springs of mineral water. There are discussed some of them, in particular mineral waters “Kokotauri”, “Bogauri”, “Nabeglavi” and “Nunisi” in which most clearly are showed these phenomena.

Perspectives of revelation and development of mineral and thermal waters resources in canyon of Adjaristskali river, Science and Technologies, # 1(721), 2016State Target Program

 There are discussed the underground mineral and thermal waters in canyon of Adjaristskali River (Georgia), which are distinguished with diverse chemical composition and physical properties. Although waters resources are relatively low, that, in authors’ opinion, due to the fact, that on this area has not been relevant geological exploration of mineral and thermal waters. There is justified revelations of additional resources of these waters, on the basis of which it is possible to organize bottling potable-curative mineral waters and construction of balneoclimatic health resorts for year-round operation.
