Abstract

The paper compares the elemental composition of alkaline silicate rocks of the Bol’shetagninsky and Beloziminsky massifs, which are part of the Ziminsky complex of ultrabasic rocks and carbonatites. The rocks of the Bol’shetagninsky massif belong to the potassium series and are distinguished by increased concentrations of large ionic lithophilic elements; in the rocks of the Beloziminsky massif, the rocks of the sodium series predominate and the contents of highly charged elements are increased. Judging by the lack of correlation between the highly charged elements in alkaline and subalkaline rocks of the Bol’shetagninsky massif, their formation, in contrast to the rocks of the Beloziminsky massif, is not associated with the process of fractional crystallization.
