Abstract

The article presents a study that investigates the age of granitoids and the ancient basement of the Western Siberian Platform. Data were gathered in an interfluve of the Elogui and Vakh rivers in the east of Western Siberian Plate and granitoids were in the alkaline granites field. Potassium-argon dating (K-Ar) of all rocks showed that Tyn'yarskii rhyolite'granite massif's age was probably Early Permian. Extraction and analysis of zircons from Samples Tyn-101/2590 meters (m) and Tyn-100/2204 m were performed. Results show that dipyramidal and molten resorbed zircon crystals in the samples had an age range of 270-280 mya (Ma). The study concludes that the basement may be ancient granite-metamorphic.
