Meso-Neoproterozoic dolerite sills and dykes of the south-east margin of the Siberian Craton are A B commonly known as linked to the Sette-Daban LIP- related event. There are several U-Pb and Sm-Nd isochron 5 RESULTS isotopic dates for the rocks of the Ulakhanbam complex, giving a range of values from 930 to 1000 10 Ma. Although there is an overlap of several dates within error, sills become younger westward from DM 974-1005 Ma in the east part of the study area to C D 932-946 Ma in its west part. Due to wide range of 6 ages they likely represent at least 2 different magmatic events, although long event is possible εNd(t) as well. To resolve this issue, new accurate dates 4 are needed. 2 Photos of thin sections in transmitted light. Textural features of dolerites.

Combined with previous geological, petrological Ti and geochemical studies on the Sette-Daban event dolerites, the following conclusions can be drawn. (1) The Sette-Daban event is represented by a single C complex of rocks that has been formed over 50 million years, starting from 1 Ga. The complex isn't homogeneous, therefore, at different stages of its Zr development, it is represented by rocks of different chemical composition, reecting one riftogenic Diagrams for rocks of Sette-Daban event. geodynamic setting.
