We present new data on the tectonic evolution of north-eastern Siberia using an integrated provenance analysis based on U–Pb detrital zircon dating and sandstone petrography of Devonian sedimentary strata. Our petrographic data suggest that Upper Devonian sandstones of north-eastern Siberia were der...
