Abstract

Problems of the origin and tectonic pattern of the South Verkhoyansk sinclinorium are discussed. It is suggested that in the Late Paleozoic the South Verkhoyansk basin inherited the structure of the Sette-Daban rift graben and, as a submarine valley, was positioned across the Vtrkhoyansk passive margin. Lateral motions of the Okhotsk indentor in course of Late Mesozoic orogenic events led to transformation of the South Verkhoyansk basin into the same name two-stade sinclinorium of which the lower cleavage stage represents as ore-bearing metamorphic layer.
