New data on age of the Neoproterozoic volcanic rocks of Isakovka Terrain from the Sayan-Yenisei accretion belt (U-Pb, zircon)

The Late Neoproterozoic U-Pb age for zircon of island-arc metadacites (691 8.8 million years) and basalts (572 6.5 million years) of the Kiselikhinskaya Formation of the Kutukasskaya Group was established for the first time. The manifestation of basaltic volcanism is associated with rift-related processes. The studies clarify the Late Precambrian stratigraphy of the Yenisei Ridge and the features of the evolution of the Sayan-Yenisei accretionary belt at the Neoproterozoic stage of its history. Folded-thrust structures of the junction zone of the Yenisei Ridge with the West Siberian Plate may be favorable in relation to the search for unconventional oil and gas traps.
