Siberia's location within the Early Neoproterozoic Rodinia Superterrane is contentious (since few if any reliable palaeomagnetic data exist between about 1.0 Ga and 540 Ma), but Siberia probably became independent during the breakup of Rodinia soon after 800 Ma and continued to be so until very near the end of the Palaeozoic, when it became an integral part of the Pangea Supercontinent. The boundaries of the cratonic core of the Siberian Terrane (including the Patom area) are briefly described, together with summaries of some of the geologically complex surrounding areas, and it is concluded that all of the Palaeozoic underlying the West Siberian

  • The Volga-Don Orocline Stitching Volgo-Sarmatia
    Geophysical Research Abstracts Vol. 14, EGU2012-11762, 2012 EGU General Assembly 2012 © Author(s) 2012 The Volga-Don orocline stitching Volgo-Sarmatia S. V. Bogdanova (1), A.V. Postnikov (2), and E.V. Bibikova (3) (1) Department of Geology, Lund University, Lund, Sweden ([email protected]), (2) I.M.Gubkin State University of Oil and Gas, Moscow, Russia ([email protected]) , (3) Vernadsky Institute of Geochemistry and Analytical Chemistry, RAS, Moscow, Russia ([email protected]) The crustal segments of Volgo-Uralia and Sarmatia occupy about half of the territory of the East European Craton. They differ from its Fennoscandian part by featuring large Early Archaean blocks and 2.1-2.0 Ga orogenic belts. The Volga-Don belt, which separates Archaean Volgo-Uralia from likewise Archaean eastern Sarmatia (the Oskol-Azov megablock) is one of the intracratonic collisional orogens that stitched together various Sarmatian terranes and Volgo-Uralia during the assembly of megacontinent Volgo-Sarmatia. The Volga-Don orogen is an orocline, NS-trending in the south, but bending and wedging out in the northwest where Sarmatia and Volgo-Uralia were brought into close contact caused by their oblique collision. It extends for more than 600 km and is very wide in the southeast, embracing several tectonic terranes, bounded by strike slip- and thrust faults. There, the Volga-Don orogen comprises the following terranes from the east to the west: (1) The wide South Volga province made up of metasedimentary migmatites and S-type garnet-bearing granitoids of granulite and amphibolite facies having NdTDM isotopic ages between 2.4 and 2.1 Ga.
