A geological map of sediments overlying the pre-Mesozoic basement of the Zeya-Bureya sedimentary basin and a tectonic map of the sedimentary cover were compiled. During tectonic zoning of the sedimentary cover, the classification of tectonic elements was adopted that is widely used in the tectonic zoning of oil and gas regions, proposed by V.D. Nalivkin and updated at the Trofimuk Institute of Oil and Gas Geology and Geophysics, Siberian Branch, Russian Academy of Sciences (INGG SB RAS). As a result of tectonic zoning in the basin, the Inner Region and the Outer Belt were identified, and the tectonic elements complicating them were characterized. A characteristic feature of the Outer Belt is the presence of large intermediate structures: monoclines and mega- and mesomonoclines. Conversely, the Inner region of the basin is characterized by the presence of a large negative structure, complicated by smaller positive and negative elements. The main stages of the formation and development of the sedimentary cover of the Zeya-Bureya sedimentary basin are identified and described: rifting, early syneclise, late syneclise, and neotectonic.</p>","PeriodicalId":49583,"journal":{"name":"Russian Journal of Pacific Geology","volume":"29 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.8,"publicationDate":"2024-08-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141948705","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
