Figure 12. The scheme of tectonic structure of the Sikhote Alin region. 1-2 - continental micro plates:
1 - Bureinskaya, 2 - Khankaiskaya; 3 - blocks of presumed continental crust (Kh - Khorskii, A - Aniuiskii);
4 - Mongol-Okhotskii Paleozoic-Early Mesozoic orogenic belt (including Jurassic post-collision superimposed
turbidite basins); 5-11 - Sikhote Alin-Sakhalin Middle Cretaceous orogenic belt: 5 - thrust nappe structures
with tectonic coincidence of Paleozoic, Triassic, Jurassic and Neocomian oceanic, marginal-sea
and island-arc structures that underwent local Paleozoic, Early Triassic and Middle
Cretaceous amphibolite and green-shale matamorphism and granitization. (zones: B - Badzhalskaya,
S - Samarkinskaya), 6 - Lower Cretaceous island-arc formations (zones: KM - Kiselevsko-Manominskaya,
K - Kemskaya), 7-11 - strike slip Late Hauterivian-Early Cenomanian formations of the final stage
of Middle Cretaceous orogenesis (collision-transform settings) 7-8 - Hauterivian-Middle Albian terrigenous
structures of grabens and pull-apart basins: 7 - olistostrome and turbidite; 8 - turbidite, mainly
arkose (Zhuravlevskii basin), 9 - Albian-Early Cenomanian terrigenous deposits, 10 - Aptian-Senomanian
surface vulcanite (calc-alkali and alkaline series), 11 - Middle Cretaceous Khungariiskii collision granitoid
complex; 12-14 - Sikhote Alin Cenomanian-Paleocene above-subduction continent-margin volcanic-plutonic belt:
12 - volcanogenic rocks (a) and intrusive rocks (b), 13 - Cenomanian-Paleocene turbidite of fore-arc trough,
14 - terrigenous-olistostromatic formations of the accretion prism of the inner part of the trench,
15 - tectonically combined Cenomanian-Turonian turbidite-olistostromatic formations of accretion
prism and Jurassic-Lower Cretaceous oceanic formations considerably metamorphosed;
16 - metamorphic rocks (glaucophane schist, amphibolite) by oceanic rocks for the major part of
Jurassic-Cretaceous (a), eclogite (b); 17-20 - East Sakhalin Middle Eocene orogenic belt:
17 - Campanian-Paleocene oceanic formations, 18 - Campanian-Paleocene oceanic and sea-margin unrugged formations,
19 - Campanian-Paleocene island-arc formations, 20 - Middle Eocene-Early Oligocene collision granitoid;
21-24 - Paleogene-Quaternary formations (settings of transform boundary of continental and oceanic plates):
21 - Late Paleogene-Quternary terrigenous deposits in grabens and pull-apart basins,
22 - Eocene-Quaternary basalt locally bimodal and differentiated associations of vulcanite of alkali,
tholeiitic and calc-alkali series (a), outcrops of those rocks regardless of scale (b), 23-24 - granitoid in zones
of amphibolite metamorphism: 23 - Early Miocene, 24 - Late Paleocene-Eocene; 25-26 - collision sutures:
25 - Early-Middle Mesozoic, 26 - Middle Eocene; 27-29 - thrusts: 27 - Paleozoic-Mesozoic unrugged,
28 - Late Albian-Early Cenomanian, 29 - Middle Eocene (a) and Middle Miocene-Quaternary (b);
30 - faults (main faults are thickened), CS - Central Sikhote Alin shift; 31 - faults from geophysical
data (for the major part shifts and faults); 32 - stratigraphic and intrusion boundary.
Line I-II - geological profile (see Figure 13).
