The dolerite dykes with an age of about 1750 Ma were discovered within the Baikal salient of the basement and belong to the Timpton Large Igneous Province. Rifting-related dolerite dykes with an age of 1640–1615 Ma are described in the Biryusa block. In the south of the craton, rare Mesoproterozoic dolerites with ages 1350–1338, 1260, and about 1000 Ma formed in an intraplate extension setting were found. The “Franklinˮ ages (about 720 Ma) were obtained for dolerites from dyke swarms of the Sayan–Baikal dyke belt, marking the early stages of rifting that led to the breakup of the Rodinia supercontinent.
