GROUP A 1) Studies are one of the important starting-points for elaboration of the Geological Map of Slovenia 1:50.000, mainly for the Cretaceous strata of the External Dinarides, 2) Based on studied macro- and microfossils a biostratigraphic subdivision of the Paleozoic and Mesozoic strata of Slovenia, and a chronostratigraphic range of certain important litostratigraphic units of the External Dinarides are established, 3) Incorporating the Slovenian part of the Adriatic-Dinaric carbonate platform in a broader paleogeographic framework, and world communication based on event geology (eustatic events, oceanic anoxic events etc.), 4) Contribution to the understanding of genesis and stratigraphic position of mineral deposits (natural stone) in SW Slovenia, 5) Contribution to the knowing of the natural heritage of Slovenia (for example fossil localities), 6) Recognition of original historic building materials in an authentic Kras architecture, 7) Novelties in knowledge of a geological structure of northern Kras and its application in the area of Brestovica water capture (Aptian-Albian emersion phase, Brestovica fault, geological map 1:5.000), 8) Contribution to the general development of geological science. GROUP B The resultant of change in stratigraphic enquiry has highlighted four perspectives relevant to development: scientific, intellectual, economic and cultural. Although the context of each perspective is different, the underlying principle is the same: to receive the maximum value. In human ecology it means actions which are more likely to produce the best results. This evolutionary process calls for a means of a great potential. Of the scientific theories, complex systems theory has the least limitations. It helps to build greater understandings in the ascending order in the understanding/meaning diagram: data, understanding relations (new information), understanding patterns (new knowledge), understanding principles (new wisdom). The intellectual perspective is in formulating questions since the characters of question greatly influence the answer we develop. Short sighted questions produce data. The challenge is to improve questions to achieve higher levels. The economic perspective is in choice. The rocks are nation's substrate used and exploit in many ways. The constructed models can serve the enterprise and prospect developers to improve their decision quality in an uncertain geological environment. The cultural perspective is getting importance, lately. Environmental concerns and sustainability should be the part of the cultural context. Both should add to it the missing perceptions from where all the materials, food, water, vine ... come from. But the first should be something upon which we exist and its geocomplexal origin in time. We should seek a cultural adaptation to our substrate. Excellent adaptation is not possible without having knowledge of maximum value. It means that the ratio intellectual content/material content should increase.
