Methods of studying the structure and properties of mountain breeds on samples (quick review)

Some non-destructive methods for controlling the internal structure of rocks are described and examples of their use are given. Examples of the use of X-ray and neural tomography, scanning electron and acoustic microscopy are also given. It is shown that the method of laser-ultrasound struktroskopii is promising. Two examples of the use of the latter are given: measuring the local porosity of samples of geomaterials and monitoring changes in the internal structure as a result of electromagnetic exposure.
