Abstract
The results of U–Pb geochronological studies of quartz syenites of the Kumystin complex of the Bolshoi Karatau ridge in southern Kazakhstan are presented and their late Neoproterozoic (717 ± 4 Ma) age is substantiated. Kumystin syenites complex together with rhyolites and basalts of the Kainar Formation are the youngest formations taking part in the basement of Karatau-Dzhebagly precambrian massif and formed in the second half of Cryogenian. The data set about the ages of the youngest complexes taking part in the basement of precambrian massifs of the Western part of the Central Asian belt indicates that the ending of magmatic activity within various massifs occurred asynchronously during the Neoproterozoic.
