We suggest to divide it into two belts: Kiselikha (western) and Torzhikha (eastern), which differed in geodynamic regime during the Late Neoproterozoic (750–600 Ma). It is believed that the Kiselikha belt is mostly composed of volcanic rocks erupted at island arc setting in the second half of the Neoproterozoic, and that collision of this arc with the Siberian Continent formed the Yenisei Ridge orogen. This idea has not been sufficiently supported by geological and geochronological data. Dating of four detrital zircons samples extracted from sedimentary and volcanic-sedimentary rocks in the southern part of the belt revealed that the sampled strata belong to three different Precambrian levels: the Mesoproterozoic, the mid-Neoproterozoic (800–750 Ma), and the end of the Neoproterozoic (620–600 Ma). Thus the authorized stratigraphic layout of the belt, as well as its proposed island-arc origin requires revision. By this paper we announce the identification of the Kiselikha Terrane , which was a part of active margin of the Siberian Paleocontinent at the beginning of the Neoproterozoic. Approximately in the middle of the Neoproterozoic, this block was rifted off Siberia and further evolved as a microcontinent bounded by an active margin from the outer side.</p>","PeriodicalId":51168,"journal":{"name":"Stratigraphy and Geological Correlation","volume":"62 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2023-11-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"138527407","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}

The formation is characterized by four spore-pollen assemblages: (1) latest Eocene <i>Pinuspollenites–Inaperturopollenites–Sciadopityspollenites</i> assemblage in the “chocolate” clays and in the lower part of brown sands; (2) early Oligocene <i>Sequoiapollenites–Betulaepollenites betuloides</i> assemblage in the lower part of the brown sands member; (3) early Oligocene <i>Boehlensipollis hohli–Carpinipites carpinoides</i> in the middle part of brown sands member; (4) late Oligocene–early Miocene <i>Alnipollenites</i>–<i>Corylopollis</i> assemblage in the upper part of the brown sands of the Kurshskaya Formation.

Mesophytic mixed coniferous-broad-leaved forests grew along the shores of the strait, lowlands were occupied by marsh vegetation. Cooling at the Eocene/Oligocene boundary resulted in the appearance of hemlock in plant communities and increase in the proportion of catkins (alder, birch, hornbeam). Presumably, in the late Oligocene–early Miocene, the proportion of small-leaved trees, especially alder and hazel, sharply increased in mesophytic forests, while the number of pine trees decreased. Wetter and warmer climatic conditions are assumed for the early Miocene: this time is characterized by an increase in the number of walnut, cypress, and Cyrillaceae.

So, they play a meaningful role in defining the stratigraphy and depositional environment of carbonate formations. Many studies from a lot of localities in this region have been published to present their prevalence, diversity and their significance. However, they remain poorly published in Vietnam even though they are recorded abundantly in the Miocene carbonate deposits in the Tertiary basins on the Vietnam continental shelf, especially in the Nam Con Son Basin, in the southeast. This paper presents the first review on LBF in Miocene carbonate sediments and their stratigraphic range in the Nam Con Son Basin. As a result, a stratigraphic framework for the Miocene LBF of the basin, ranging from Te5 to Tg letter stages, is established. This may be used to identify the geological age and to support the correlation of carbonate deposits in this area. In general, their evolution demonstrates the development of carbonate formations in the basin, which are connected to the opening of the South China Sea; foraminifers follow the main evolutionary lineages of the Indo-Pacific province but have distinctive characteristics. In the Early Miocene, LBF appeared sparsely in Te5, then became frequent in lower Tf1. In the Middle Miocene, they presented their diversity and abundance in the fauna of <i>Miogypsina</i>, <i>Lepidocyclina (Nephrolepidina)</i>, <i>Cycloclypeus</i> and <i>Katacycloclypeus</i>.
