—The previous paleomagnetic studies of the Upper Vendian Zigan Formation sediments on the western slope of Southern Ural revealed uncommonly numerous magnetic polarity zones (Bazhenov et al., 2016). The dating of magmatic zircons from the tuff interlayer constrained the age of this formation to 547.6 ± 3.8 Ma. The rate of reversals estimated from most general considerations is about 20–30 per Myr which is approximately two to three times higher than the highest reversal frequency in Phanerozoic. In this work, a more accurate estimate of the rate of reversals is obtained from cyclostratigraphic study of the lower red-rock part (74 m) of the Zigan Formation in its continuous section along the Sterlitamak–Magnitogorsk road—the longest one among those previously studied by the paleomagnetic method. The correlation of the detailed cyclostratigraphic studies with the magnetostratigraphic column allowed a more reliable estimation of the reversal rate. The studied section in which we identified 20 reversals was accumulated during 1.6 Myr, i.e., the reversal frequency in this interval was 12–13 per Myr. Our quantitative assessment shows that the previous studies overestimated the geomagnetic reversal frequency by a factor of two. However, even the reversal rate estimated in this study can be regarded anomalously high, and the previous conclusions about the existence of a period with anomalously frequent reversals in terminal Ediacaran 547.6 ± 3.8 Myr ago can be considered validated.

A number of ecological and geochemical transformations occurred during late Ediacaran and early Cambrian time, the effects of which are difficult to overestimate. However, the strong linkage of biostratigraphic and chemostratigraphic methods with lithofacies makes the localization of the Precambrian–Cambrian boundary and its correlation with lithologically contrasting sections highly debatable. We analyse the taxonomy and stratigraphic distribution of small skeletal fossils and trace fossils, the carbonate carbon and oxygen isotope composition, and U–Pb detrital zircon age in the Ediacaran–Cambrian transitional interval of the Irkutsk Cis–Sayans Uplift (southwestern Siberian Platform). This interval (Moty Group) comprises a transgressive succession with red-coloured alluvial to deltaic siliciclastic deposits (Shaman Formation) and overlying shallow-marine carbonates (Irkut Formation). The lower Irkut Formation hosts sporadic and poorly preserved tubularCambrotubulusfossils, which are known from both the terminal Ediacaran Period (c. 550–541 Ma) and the Terreneuvian Epoch (541–521 Ma), and typical Fortunian trace fossils, including an index ichnotaxon of the Cambrian boundaryTreptichnus pedum. The biostratigraphic and carbonate carbon isotope data and U–Pb concordia ages of 531.1 ± 5.2 Ma (mean weighted, 530.6 ± 5.3 Ma) of the five youngest zircon grains from the lower Irkut Formation indicate that at least the shallow-marine carbonates of the upper Moty Group correspond to the Cambrian Stage 2 (c. 529–521 Ma). In the Irkutsk Cis–Sayans Uplift, the Cambrian Period tentatively began before or during the accumulation of the alluvial to deltaic siliciclastic Khuzhir and Shaman formations, and this crucial divide remained unmarked in the palaeontological and isotopic records.

U–Th–Pb (SHRIMP II) isotopic dating of accessory zircons from Vendian (Ediacaran) ash tuffs of the Basa formation section (Asha Group, Southern Ural) was performed for the first time. The concordant age obtained (573.0 ± 2.3 Ma) can be interpreted as the upper age limit of the onset of the Timan Orogeny in the structure of the Southern Urals. Fossil remains of Kuckaraukia multituberculata and several paleopascichnids, belonging to the genera Palaeopascichnus and Orbisiana, were previously found in the rocks of the Upper Basa Subformation, and the first occurrence of Arumberia banksi was established. The age obtained indicates a more ancient age of this Vendian assemblage compared to the previously accepted one.

—The analysis of paleomagnetic data from Late Neoproterozoic complexes of Siberia and Australia is carried out. We show that the existing paleomagnetic datasets are in a disagreement with the concept of the axial-dipole configuration of the Late Neoproterozoic geomagnetic field: proposed non-actualistic models of the field do not reasonably explain the distribution of the paleomagnetic poles. We carried out analysis of paleomagnetic and virtual geomagnetic poles distribution based on simple geometric calculations. The analysis suggests that the configuration of the Late Neoproterozoic geomagnetic field was determined by the coexistence of a weak, long-lived source that was stably fixed in space, with a main dipole source that experienced sporadic multidirectional jumps within a certain preferred region of the Earth. Predominantly equatorial orientation of the main dipole source is substantiated by paleoclimate proxies. We propose a descriptive non-actualistic model of the Late Neoproterozoic geomagnetic field—the Devious Equatorial Dipole hypothesis, which brings paleomagnetic and paleoclimate data into accordance.

The article presents the results of U-Pb isotope dating of detrital zircons from the Jurassic coarse rocks in the apex and the western slope of Mnt. Biyuk-Sinor (the southern wall of the Baidar basin, near the village of Orlinoe). These dates are compared with the detrital zircon dates obtained for sandy rocks from the Upper Jurassic coarse clastic strata composing the slopes of Mnt. Spilia near Balaklava Harbor and Mnt. Southern Demerdzhi near Alushta city, as well as the Middle Jurassic Bitak conglomerates near the village of Strogonovka (suburb of Simferopol city). The comparison shows a high degree of similarity of the averaged age characteristics of the main detrital zircon populations. Sandy rocks of Jurassic coarse clastic strata for zircon dating were sampled in four locations of the Mountaineous Crimea. Based on their dates and a summary set of ages of detrital zircon grains from sandstones of the Southern Coast of Crimea, spanning the stratigraphic interval from the Middle Jurassic to Neogene, we can provide a statistically reliable specification of the Carboniferous-Triassic time interval (360–200 Ma) of magmatic activity within the Black Sea region. This period was bounded in time by the Late Devonian and Early Jurassic relative magmatic lulls. None of the zircon grains of the Carboniferous-Triassic age has revealed Hf-isotopic characteristics indicating any significant contribution of crustal material older than the Mesoproterozoic into the protolith of the parent zircon rocks. Within the Carboniferous-Triassic interval of magmatic activity, three stages are distinguished: (I) 360–315 Ma, (II) 315–270 Ma, and (III) 270–200 Ma. Magmatic stage I (360–315 Ma) is related to the closure of the Reik ocean, which completed after the subducted slab ‘broke off’ into the mantle and was accompanied by the ubiquitously manifested HT-LP metamorphism. Zircon grains of stage I are characterized by peak ages of about 325–340 Ma and the dominance of negative εHf. Magmatic stages II (315–270 Ma) and III (270–200 Ma) correlate with functioning of the Scythian-Pontian volcanic suprasubduction belt. In these magmatic stages, zircon εHf values scatter from weakly negative to substantially positive (referred to the depleted mantle), which is typical for volcanic arcs. Fuzzy separation of stages II and III and strong variability of the peak ages of zircons from the studied samples (which we associate with these stages) can be due both to changes in magmatic activity in different segments of the belt, and to changes in the erosion intensity of crystalline complexes of the belt during the subsequent stages evolution caused by tectonic rearrangements within the Paleo-Tethys ocean and its peri-oceanic structures.

New data on the 87Sr/86Sr ratio variations in carbonate rocks of the Dal’nyaya Taiga Group in the Vendian reference section (Ura Uplift, Central Siberia) are presented. The 87Sr/86Sr variations correlate with the sequence-stratigraphic scheme reflecting evolution of the paleobasin, δ13C variations, and paleontological data. Limestones with a high (>1050 µg/g) Sr concentration, which do not show any signs of alteration of the Sr isotope system, were used for reconstructing the secular 87Sr/86Sr variations. Increase in the 87Sr/86Sr ratio from 0.70755 to 0.70823 complicated by subordinate fluctuations was established in seawater during the accumulation of the Dal’nyaya Taiga Group carbonate rocks. Duration of the postglacial deposition of the Dal’nyaya Taiga Group is estimated at no less than 14–15 Ma. Secular variations of the 87Sr/86Sr ratio measured in the Dal’nyaya Taiga Group limestones are similar to changes of this ratio after the Marinoan glacial period. The Sr and C isotope correlations suggest a prolonged hiatus between the Dal’nyaya Taiga and Zhuya groups.

—Paleo- and rock magnetic, sedimentological, and isotope geochemical study is carried out for the carbonate member of Late Neoproterozoic Nichatka Formation (Siberian Platform, western slope of the Aldan Shield) enclosed within glacial deposits corresponding to the hypothetical event of “Snowball Earth” global glaciation. Based on the sedimentological, rock magnetic, and geochemical indications it is established that sediments composing this member have varve-type seasonal stratification and, according to our estimates, have been accumulated for at most 13 thousand years. Obtaining the detailed paleomagnetic data for the Precambrian varves allowed us to reveal a linear trend in the distribution of the virtual geomagnetic poles and to link it with the peculiarity of secular variation of the geomagnetic field during the time span of the Nichatka Formation. The paleomagnetic record in the periglacial sediments of the Nichatka Formation testifies to their deposition close to the equator which might be considered as supporting the Snowball Earth hypothesis. However, the absence of annual temperature fluctuations within the equatorial belt makes the formation of seasonal deposits at low latitudes barely possible and completely excludes such a possibility in the conditions close to total glaciation. The contradiction between paleoclimatic and paleomagnetic data is not explained in the context of the actualistic model of the geomagnetic field. The peculiarities of the paleomagnetic record in the Nichatka Formation, similar to the record of the field during the reversal, suggest that the geomagnetic field in the Neoproterozoic could be determined by substantial contribution of the low-latitude non-axial-dipole component. This peculiarity of the Neoproterozoic geomagnetic field can explain the entire set of the worldwide paleomagnetic data implying low latitude glaciations in the Neoproterozoic.

U–Pb dating, Hf-isotope, and trace-element studies on two detrital zircon samples from sandstone interlayers in the Upper Jurassic conglomerates of the Southern coast of the Mountainous Crimea provide new information on the primary crystalline complexes from which those conglomerates were sourced. The U–Pb age spectra of studied zircons suggest that they were most likely sourced from the (meta)sedimentary complexes of the Eastern and Western Pontides blocks and the Dobrogea platform. In particular, a close similarity of the Precambrian age spectra with the detrital zircons from Late Neoproterozoic–Late Paleozoic (meta)sedimentary complexes of the Dobrogea block provides strong supporting evidence for the affinity between the Pre-Mesozoic basement of the Crimea and the Dobrogea platform. The zircons in the first sample were recycled through Dobrogea sedimentary complexes and originated from terranes with Amazonia affinities, while zircons in the second sample were recycled through the Taurides and originated from terranes related to northeastern Africa and Arabia. The strong similarity of the Precambrian parts of the age spectra of the Dobrogea complexes and the sample K15-007 suggests a resemblance of the Crimea’s Pre-Mesozoic foundation and the Dobrogea platform. Initial analytical data are provided in Electronic Supplementary Materials A (ESM A). Descriptions of measurement parameters, methodologies, and constants used to process primary analytical data and some processing results are reported in ESM B (Figs. B1–B8). Schemes of locations within Balkans–Anatolia–Black Sea–Caucasus region the crystalline complexes with Jurassic, Triassic, Permian–Carboniferous, as well as Late Neoproterozoic–Cambrian and Ordovician–Devonian ages are in ESM C (Figs. C1, C3–C5).

The U–Pb dating and Hf isotope systematics of detrital zircons from a sandstone interbed in the section of the upper conglomerate sequence of the Mt. South Demerdzhi were carried out. The dominant populations of detrital zircons in the studied sample characterize episodes of magmatic activity within the source of the Upper Jurassic conglomerates. Magmatism was manifested in the Vendian-Cambrian, Carbon-Triassic and Late Jurassic. The åHf values of detrital zircons of these ages indicate the insignificant role of the ancient (Archean–Early Proterozoic) continental crust in the protolith of magmatic chambers. The similarity of the detrital zircons age distribution from the Middle Jurassic and Upper Jurassic conglomerate strata suggests that they are molasses of the Cimmerian orogen. The absence of products of Middle Jurassic magmatism in molasses of the Cimmerian orogen, which we fixed, limits position of the Cimmerian orogen in the southern part of the Scythian plate. It is shown that the primary source of the Precambrian detrital zircons were mobilized within the Cimmerian orogen the crustal fragments of the Peri-Gondwanan origin, rather than the basement complexes of the East European Platform, similar to the complexes of the Ukrainian shield. The reconstruction of the main stages of the accumulation of the coarse-grained strata of the Mountaineous Crimea in the context of the tectonic evolution of the southern margin of Laurasia during the Mesozoic is presented.

The results of U–Pb-isotopic dating of detrital zircons from sandstones of the Proterozoic Pogor’uy Formation, occurring to the north and south of the East Angara block of Yenisei Ridge, are presented. The sandstones of the northern part of the East Angara block are dominated by Archean and Paleoproterozoic populations of detrital zircons, while the samples from the southern part of the East Angara block have been revealed up to 25% of Mesoproterozoic age grains. The detrital zircon ages allow limiting the maximum sedimentary age of the Pogor’uy Fm. and the entire interval of its formation to 1.2–0.9 Ga. The paleogeographic features of the Pogor’uy Fm. deposition in the context of the existing opinions on the location of Siberia within the Rodinia supercontinent were examined.

U/Pb-isotope dating of detrital zircons from conglomerates of the reference section of the Demerdzhi Formation on the western slope of Mount Southern Demerdzhi was carried out. A cluster of the five youngest, reliably dated zircons with an average age of 154.1 ± 0.73 Ma was revealed, which indicates that the formation of conglomerates overlying the studied layer began to form not earlier than in the Late Kimmeridgian. The dating obtained forces us to reconsider the age of the Demerdzhi Formation, which was previously specified as Oxfordian–Early Kimmeridgian. New data on the age of thecoarse-grained sedimentary rocks of the Crimean Mountains advance concepts about Late Jurassic Cimmerian tectonic activity on the northern Tethys margin.

Probably the largest negative δ13С anomaly in Earth history called the “Shuram” excursion (SE) had taken place in the Ediacaran period. Determining the duration of SE is needed to resolve its nature and for the stratigraphic correlation of Ediacaran rocks. The cyclostartigraphic method allows to precisely determine the accumulation rates of ancient deposits (the theoretical error is up to 10,000 years), but the testing of the accuracy of the cyclostratigraphic method usually based on biostratigraphy and geochronology meets difficulties for the Precambrian deposits. The reliability of cyclostartigarphic estimates of the SE duration can be determined by the convergence of cyclostratigraphic results obtained from distant sections on different continents and in sections representing different depositional environments. Recently limitations on the SE duration have been obtained in Australia, California, Oman, and China. Recently limitations on the SE duration have been obtained in Australia, California, Oman, and China. Here we present the first cyclostratigraphic estimates of the SE duration from the Zhuya Group of the Patom basin in South Siberia.Two sections of the Zhuya Group were studied, both recording the decrease of the δ13С values up to -12 ‰ in the nadir point and then increase till -9 ‰. In both sections, the cyclicity of variations in magnetic susceptibility (MS) was studied. The first section (57 m, Nikolskoe Fm.) represents sediments deposited on the slope of the carbonate platform. Spectral analysis of the MS variations revealed peaks above 95% significance level on the period lengths of 11.5, 1.73, 1.04, 0.67, 0.51 m with ratios 1/6.6 /11/17/22.3 respectively. This cyclicity is interpreted as a reflection of orbitally forced climate changes, where the longest-period variations correspond to short eccentricity cycles (100 ky). Then, the studied interval lasted approximately 500 ky, and the duration of the entire Nikolskaya Fm., corresponding to the lower third of the SE, is about 2.5 My.The second section belongs to the Torgo Fm. in the Berezovskaya depression, which is the epicontinental part of the Patom Basin. MS variations in the studied 14.2 m interval shows significant peaks at period lengths of 2.3, 0.74, 0.51, 0.38, 0.28, 0.27, 0.25, 0.20 m with ratios 1.00/3.13/4.52/6.10/8.03/8.48/9.19/11.52. In this section, we also interpret the longest-period of the MS variations as a reflection of cycles of short eccentricity (100 ka). Then, the duration of the studied interval is 613 ky. and the SE duration in the whole 200 meters of the Torgo Fm. is estimated as 8.6 My. The obtained preliminary results are in good agreement with those from Australia (ca. 8 My), Oman (7.7 +/- 0.2 My), North America (8.2 +/- 1.2 My), and China (9.1 +/- 1 My). Thus, the influence of Milankovitch's orbital cycles on the formation of carbonate deposits of the Late Precambrian seems to be quite convincing, and the cyclostratigraphic estimate of the duration of the SE about 10 Ma is more and more reliable.Research supported by the Russian Science Foundation (project № 20-77-10066)

The paper presents results of the lithological study of Upper Jurassic limestones, flyschoids and limestone breccias on the southern side of the Baidar Valley in the Crimean Mountains. Study of the microfacies revealed that the limestones are represented by deposits on lagoons, platform edge shoals, reefs, and forereef aprons on the carbonate platform slope. Flyschoids include deposits in the distributive turbidite channels and hemipelagic sediments in the deep-water part of the basin. Limestone breccias were formed by gravitation flows on the carbonate platform toe-of-slope and slope. The presence of gravitation deposits in the Upper Jurassic carbonate complexes of the Crimean Mountains can testify to the primary clinoform structure of this sedimentary sequence. Comparison of the obtained sedimentological data made it possible to reconstruct the facies model of the Crimean carbonate platform and main episodes of its formation. Development of the carbonate shelf was related to two transgressive-regressive cycles. A dome-shaped reef was formed away from the coast at the initial (Oxfordian) stage. The carbonate platform was formed at the early Kimmeridgian lowstand stage when sediments were deposited in the internal part of the platform adjacent to land. In the late Kimmeridgian and early Tithonian, configuration of the carbonate platform profile resembled a distally steepened ramp, and its active progradation and shelf expansion took place in the course of transgression. Regression in the late Tithonian–early Berriasian led to regressive transformation of the ramp into platform with a flattened shallow-water shelf. Tectonic deformations at the Jurassic/Cretaceous transition promoted the formation of megabreccias on the carbonate platform foreslope. The tectonically reworked rock sequence of the “extinct” carbonate platform was overlapped transgressively by the upper Berriasian or lower Valanginian, relatively deep-water deposits of the Cretaceous platform cover.

The main results are presented on U/Pb-isotope dating of 100 detrital zircons and, selectively, on the Lu/Hf-isotope system of 43 grains from sandstones of the Lopatinskii formation (the lower stratigraphic level of the Chingasan group). Ages from 896 ± 51 to 2925 ± 38 Ma were obtained with a pronounced maximum of ~1890 Ma in the curve of probability density, along with eHf estimates from +8.4 to–15.1, which allow one to throw doubt upon the molasse nature of the Lopatinskii formation.

New data were obtained on δ13Сcarb and δ18O variations in the sequence of deposits of the Dal’nyaya Taiga series at the western and eastern flanks of the Ura anticline. The summary δ13С curve was plotted in view of the correlation of sequence–stratigraphic data of the basin analysis. A series of positive anomalies was found within the succession. Alternatives for global chemostratigraphic correlation of the Dal’nyaya Taiga series of the Ura uplift were considered.

The paper presents the results of study of the Sr, C, and O isotope compositions in Upper Jurassic carbonate rocks of the Baidar Valley and Demerdzhi Plateau in the Crimean Mountains represented by different facies of the carbonate platform at the northern active margin of the Tethys. The 87Sr/86Sr value in them varies from 0.70699 to 0.70728. Based on the Sr chemostratigraphic correlation, the age of massive and layered limestones in the western part of the Ai-Petri and Baidar yailas (pastures) is estimated as late Kimmeridgian–early Tithonian, whereas the age of flyschoids of the Baidar Valley are estimated as late Tithonian–early Berriasian. The nearly synchronous formation of carbonate breccias of the Baidar Valley and Demerdzhi Plateau in late Tithonian–early Berriasian is substantiated. A summary section of Upper Jurassic rocks is compiled based on the Sr chemostratigraphic data. It has been established that δ18O values in the studied carbonate sediments vary from–2.9 to 1.3‰ (V-PDB). At the same time, shallow-water sediments in the internal part and the edge of the Crimean carbonate platform are depleted in 18O (–2.9 to +0.1‰) relative to sediments on the slope and foothill (–0.5 to +1.3‰). It is demonstrated that δ13C values do not depend on the facies properties and decrease in younger carbonate sediments from 3–3.5‰ to 1–1.5‰ in line with the Late Jurassic general trend. The δ13C values obtained for the Crimean carbonate platform turned out to be 0.5–1‰ higher than the values typical of the deep-water marine setting at the western margin of the Tethys. These discrepancies are likely related to peculiarities of water circulation and high bioproductivity in marine waters of the northern Peri-Tethys.

The first Sr chemostratigraphic data are obtained for the Upper Jurassic carbonate sections in the Demerdzhi Plateau of the Crimean Mountains. The oncoid, microbial, and organogenic-detrital limestone varieties representing shallow-water marine microfacies of the carbonate platform served as material for these studies. The limestone samples for reconstructing the isotopic parameters of depositional environments were selected using geochemical criteria (Mn/Sr < 0.2, Fe/Sr < 1.6, Mg/Ca < 0.024) and subjected to the preliminary treatment in a 1 N ammonium acetate solution. The 87Sr/86Sr value in the least altered samples increases up the section from 0.70701 to 0.70710. The obtained 87Sr/86Sr values are correlated with the Sr isotope properties of belemnite rostrae characterizing the Pectinatites scitulus-Pavlovia rotunda ammonite zone in the zonal scale of the Boreal realm, Hyponoticeras hybonotum-M. ponti/B. peroni Zone in the zonal scale of the Tethyan realm, and lower part of the Dorsoplanites panderi Zone in the zonal scale for the transitional domain of the East European Platform. The Sr chemostratigraphic correlation indicates the early Tithonian age of sediments developed in the eastern part of the Demerdzhi Plateau and restricts the upper boundary of the limestone section redeposited within carbonate breccia of Mount Severnaya Demerdzhi to the terminal early Tithonian. The Sr isotope data are used for calculating the sedimentation rates for limestones. They are estimated to be at least 0.23 m/1000 years, which is an anomalously high value for pre-Quaternary carbonate platforms.

As a result of a microfacies analysis of the section of Middle-Upper Tithonian Limestones of the Demerdzhi Plateau (Mountainous Crimea), 12 microfacies types of rocks were distinguished. It has been established that these microfacies types formed in the facies zones of an inner carbonate platform: the littoral, restricted and open marine and sand shoals of the margins of a carbonate platform. The sequence of the microfacies types in the vertical section corresponds to a transgressive trend with minor sea-level fluctuations of the second order. In addition, the communities of microencrusters, which played an active role in sediment stabilization and formation of small bioherms, have been studied. These communities are considered to be evidence of the shallowness of the paleobasin

The first finding of prints of the Vendian Beltanelloides sorichevae Sokolov 1965 in the lower part of the Barakun Formation confirms the Vendian age of the Far Taiga Group, Patom Complex. This finding also raises a problem concerning the lower propagation limit of Beltanelloides sorichevae.

The first compiled composite section comprises continuous succession of upper Tithonian-lower Berriasian strata (Jacobi Zone) from different isolated outcrops of the Feodosiya area. Based on new magnetostratigraphic and sedimentological data, the paleomagnetic section is correlated with succession of M20r, M19n, M19r, M18b chrons and M18n.1r Subchron (“Brodno”). The thorough complex bio- and magnetostratigraphic correlation of the upper Tithonian-lower Berriasian interval (Jacobi Zone) carried out through the Western Tethys and Eastern Paratethys provided grounds for first defining age analogs of the Durangites Zone in the Crimean Mountains and specifying location of the boundary between the Jurassic and Cretaceous systems, as well as for determining late Tithonian age of strata in the Dvuyakornaya Bay section barren of fossils.
