Abstract
The data on the geochemistry and geochronology of zircons from wehrlites and clinopyroxenites of the dunite–wehrlite–clinopyroxenite banded complex that lies at the base of the crustal section of the ophiolite complex of the Nurali massif are presented. The obtained U–Pb age of the banded complex of 450 ± 4 Ma differs markedly from the previous age data. According to REE distribution patterns zircons from ultramafic rocks are attributed to the magmatic type and they indicate the age and supposed genetic similarity of the above rocks with lherzolites and dunites from the mantle section of the Nurali massif.
