Abstract

Research subject. Quartzites that make up the ridge part of the ridge Rosomaha in the northern part of the Lyapinsky meganticlinorium in the Subpolar Urals. Material and methods. Detrital zircons were isolated from quartzites and their optical and isotope-geochronological U-Pb (LA-SF-ICP-MS) studies were performed. On the basis of chemical analyzes of rocks using indicator ratios and coefficients, the conditions for the formation of deposits were established. Results. The stratigraphic position of the quartzite ridge Rosomaha was determined. The time and conditions for the formation of the Khobeinskaya formation were specified. The role of polymetamorphic complexes of the Subpolar Urals as possible sources of terrigenous material removal during the formation of the Upper Precambrian section of the Subpolar Urals was estimated. Conclusions. It was established that the quartzites belong to the ridge Rosomaha to the Khobeinskaya formation, whose age is limited to the interval of 850–800 Ma (Inzersky level). It is shown that the crystalline complexes of Fennoscandia and the Central Russian orogen, as well as polymetamorphic complexes of the crystalline basement of the Timan-Severoural margin of the East European Platform, could be sources of terrigenous material.
