Abstract
On the right bank of Selenga River, terraces as high as 60–65 m are composed of aleuritic-sandy sorted sediments with a small admixture of non-rounded and slightly-rounded coarse material. The sediments are sorted with subhorizontal and inclined stratification. Sedimentary rocks with common structural and textural characteristics show different genesis: in the Ust’-Dzhida basin mainly lacustrine-alluvial, with an admixture of river and slope material, in the Gusinoozerskaya basin – alluvial with the formation of non-channeled and floodplain facies.

Italian Journal of Engineering Geology and Environment (IJEGE), published by Sapienza Università Editrice university press, is the open access Journal of the Research Center CERI on "Prediction, Prevention ad Control of Geological Risks" of Sapienza University of Rome. The Journal publishes original papers concerning the numerous topics of environmental risks such as seismic risk, landslide risk, hydraulic and flood risk, groundwater resource management, soil and groundwater contamination, reclamation of contaminated land, applied geophysics, economic geology, land use, soil and rock characterization. IJEGE is the Journal of the Italian Association of Engineering Geology and Environment (AIGA). The Journal is published under the auspices of the International Association for Engineering Geology and the Environment (IAEG) - Italian Group.
