Oil found in bottom of Lake Baikal
 

IRKUTSK, August 7 (Itar-Tass) - Scientists of the Limnology Institute of the 
Siberian branch of the Russian Academy of Sciences have found oil mixtures in 
the bottom of Lake Baikal during dives of deepwater submersibles Mir-1 and 
Mir-2, the instituite’s director Academician Mikhail Grachev told ITAR-TASS on 
Thursday. 

He said “we knew earlier that oil comes to the surface at Cape Gorevoi Utyos 
near the Barguzinsky Bay, we even took samples of bottom rock mixed with 
hydrocarbons, but our scientists for the first time could see them at a 
850-meter depth”. 

The institute’s four associates – a geologist, chemist and two female 
biologists - dived in submersibles to the bottom of the world’ deepest and 
largest body of the fresh water. 

They obtained numerous samples of the water, rock and microorganisms. 

“The release of oil from faults of the earth crust struck their imagination: 
these are some bitumen formations of a different size and configuration,” 
Grachev said. 

Limnologist will continue studies using the Mir submersibles. 

They are going to move on their research ship The Vereshchagin to other areas 
of the release of natural oil, gas and gas hydrates.
