Abstract
Biostratigraphic characteristics of the Pontian deposits of Gobustan are given based on the materials of the Sundu cavern. The systematic composition and characteristic complexes of ostracods for the lower, middle, and upper sub-tiers are revealed. Biostratigraphic dissection of the section was performed. It is established that sediments of the Pontian regiostage take part in the geological structure of the anticlinal structure of the Sundu. A scheme of dismemberment of the Pontian sediments of Sundu cavern has been developed, which can be applied during further geological exploration in other areas of the SE of Gobustan. The obtained results can also be used for biostratigraphic study of deep-submerged Miocene deposits of the western side of the Southern Caspian.
