The classification of the mineral deposits (MD) should take into account a modular condition of the useful minerals, a level of the organization of the substance, being a useful component, the MD genesis. The genetic classification of MD should take into account the categories of the technogenetic, cosmogenetic, geogenetic MD. It is offered to refuse the traditional division on the endogenetic, exogenetic, metamorphogenetic MD and to accept division on the endogenetic (syngenetic and epigenetic) and exogenetic (syngenetic and epigenetic) MD.
