In terms of tectonics, the band of their outcrops is confined to the margin of the North Asian Caledonian continent, stretching from southeast to northwest along the southern slope of the Gobi, Mongolian, and Chinese Altai to Eastern Kazakhstan, where they are represented in the Irtysh shear zone. The SAMB includes poly- and monometamorphic complexes. The age of granitoids formed at the late episode of metamorphism was determined for the Tsel tectonic plate of the Gobi Altai in the southeastern part of the SAMB: from 374 ± 2 to 360 ± 5 Ma. These and previously obtained results show that the early stage of low-pressure metamorphism and the late stage of high-pressure metamorphism occurred in the age intervals of ~390–385 and 375–360 Ma, respectively, almost throughout this belt. A short-term stage of stabilization was between these stages. These processes occurred during the closure of the basin with the Tethys-type oceanic crust of the South Mongolian Ocean (paleo-Tethys I). The spatial position of the SAMB is determined by the asymmetric structure of the basin, in which the active continental margin is represented along its northern part, and the passive one is represented along the southern one (in modern coordinates).</p> </span>","PeriodicalId":51168,"journal":{"name":"Stratigraphy and Geological Correlation","volume":"27 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2023-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140150005","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}

Lebedev, an employee of the Geological Institute, USSR Academy of Sciences, collected plant fossils. Together with geologists of that enterprise, he developed a new stratigraphic chart of the region, which turned out to be incorrect, as appeared later, being based on ideas on the floral development in the mid-Cretaceous time. Lebedev made vast collections that include several thousand remains of ancient plants. However, this material turned out to be attributed to nonexistent stratigraphic units. This made it of little use for further study. Our investigation has demonstrated that the most representative collections made by Lebedev in the Ul’ya–Urak interfluve (taphofloras of the sites 101 and 107–110, 28, 20, 25, 27, 70–78, 153, 154) come from the first sequence of felsic volcanics of the homodromous succession of volcanism in the Okhotsk–Chukotka Volcanogenic Belt. In the Ul’ya Trough, this sequence was initially called the Amka Formation.

Carbonate horizons within the mixed lithology successions, yielded foraminifera suggesting the Middle/Late Permian transition. The carbonate microfacies and related stable isotopic profiles indicate a change from siliciclastic marginal marine conditions (Saad Fm.) to fully marine platform conditions (Arqov Fm.) in a gradual marine transgression onto a segmented peneplain, and producing sedimentary facies belts striking SW–NE. A comparison of this work with previous work in southern and eastern Israel suggests that the Permian formations in Israel formed NW to SE diachronistically, by marine transgression during the Middle and the Late Permian, with maximum flooding during the Changhsingian. It appears that although not precisely defined, the regional Middle/Late Permian transition happened during a major marine transgression, characterized by a negative to positive stable isotope shift, and by apparently gradual aridization of the hinterland. The regional onset of sedimentation occurred on a marginally superficially downfaulted northwestward peneplain, subdivided tentatively into four segments with shallow half-graben structures. The three eastern segments ceased their differential movements and maintained uniform northwestward subsidence during the late Wuchiapingian–Changhsingian. The most western fourth segment had differential fault activity through the Triassic and the Jurassic, and is proposed to be placed on a transition to a proximal tectonic necking zone.</p>","PeriodicalId":51168,"journal":{"name":"Stratigraphy and Geological Correlation","volume":"52 4","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2023-11-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"138512434","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}
